Through our project “Strengthening Climate Resilience through Agroecology in School Communities,” the impact is starting to show.
We have started harvesting some crops, while others are still growing as we continue developing a complete school garden using different agroecological practices.
What was once considered difficult land where people said “nothing can grow here because it is salty” is now producing crops. We are demonstrating that, with the right agroecological practices, even challenging land can be improved and made productive.
As you can see in the photos, we have used a large amount of compost and sand to improve the soil structure and create better growing conditions. This has also helped reduce dust and support crops to grow despite the challenging conditions of the land.
Through this simple demonstration, we are changing mindsets and showing young people that agroecology can provide practical solutions for climate resilience and sustainable food systems.
This progress would not have been possible without the support of TABIO and the Howden Foundation. We are grateful for their support in making this practical learning and demonstration possible.
