How Project Affects Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions:

['Replaces/avoids GHGs (e.g., projects that replace sources of GHGs, such as the burning of fossil fuels for electricity, heat, transport, or other energy uses)', 'Reduces GHGs (e.g., projects that reduce sources of GHGs, such as through efficiency or other changes in consumption)', 'Removes/stores GHGs (e.g., projects that capture, sequester, or otherwise enhance the "sinks" that accumulate and store GHGs)']

Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

We will support the following groups who are under represented in the climate change: women, rural communities, forest communities, youths, refugees, people with disabilities, among others.The activities will support scaling up of our solution, complete all pending prototyping and start commercial operations, thereby supporting the growth of our company and helping us to achieve organic growth and sustainability. They will enable us to establish a vertically integrated manufacturing factory which will manage all manufacturing processes for cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food supplements; finalize prototyping for cosmetics/pharmaceutical products, food supplements and other value associated industries as well as value chains. 

The activities will transform the rural agriculture from low value subsistence agricultural activities providing low value jobs to a high value professional industry with high value processing and associated activities that support high value products and jobs in the whole value chain from production, processing, distribution and upto consumers.

The activities will enable our company to scale up targeted cosmetics, medicinal products and food supplements, helping us to increase direct permanent jobs
