Beyond Subsistence is a development organisation that invests in rural communities in Africa. Our programs are designed to train, equip and empower national people to become productive, diversified and sustainable farmers. Our goal is to bring about long-term improvements to people’s lives and landscapes. The benefits and flow on effects also positively impact health and nutrition, housing, education, community wealth and the environment.
Our agroforestry training programs are teaching farmers and school children how to integrate trees back into their landscapes to make their farms more profitable, diversified and sustainable; and Our fuel-efficient stove programs are teaching farmers and school children how to build and use simple clay stoves to reduce firewood use - in addition to reducing exposure to smoke inhalation which causes an estimated 4 million premature deaths each year (World Health Organisation).
Our international work is undertaken entirely through volunteers. We rely on donations, sponsorships and community support. There are so many wonderful advantages to this work and we are seeing some amazing results and flow on affects.
