Project Summary / Description:

The goal of our project is to restore the chain of Mitumba through the planting and establishment of public nurseries in favor of local communities.
This project was designed in response to the problem of deforestation that was observed on the mountain range. According to the evaluation carried out in 2019, the peasants had affirmed that this chain was covered with trees and it was like a kind of forest. It was around 2005 that this chain began to suffer enormous pressure and erosion enveloped it. Our project focuses on providing agroforestry, fruits and anti-erosion seedlings to communities bordering the Mitumba chain. It was after the assessments carried out on the ground that the project was set up in September 2020 with on-board resources.

Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

In the policy of our project, young people and women are the most integrated because they are very exposed to the consequences of climate change. On the one hand in the community, the peasant women are the big farmers while their husbands diversify. The young people who represent the future see their nature degraded overnight. Involving these sections of the community would lead to more engagement in the community. Thus, the labor used is generally women and young people with the aim of helping them to meet vital needs or the family economy and thus make them independent. There are these fruit trees that are already producing fruit and whose beneficiaries are willing to put their products on the market and thus increase their income.
