Improving livelihoods of farming families in the watershed of the Rio Quiscab

Natur schützen, Bauernfamilien stützen, Guatemala

The majority of the indigenous rural population in the Rio Quiscab watershed area in the Sololá department survive off self-sufficient subsistence agriculture. 70% of these farming families are poor. They overexploit their natural resources, water, forest, and soil. We help smallholder families use their land in a way that conserves resources while still improving their yields.

A good start in working life: Training and job placement for marginalized young adults

Many young adults living in the poorer districts of Soacha fled from rural areas before the civil war and are trying to build a new existence in the city that lies on the outskirts of Bogotá. However, they lack vocational training, a network and the knowledge of how to conduct themselves in job application situations. As a result, the unemployment rate of young refugees in Colombia is 58 percent.

Protecting mangroves, preserving habitat: smallholder farming families in Southern Honduras use forest, water and soil sustainably

The people on the hot and dry southern coast of Honduras live on what they can grow in their small fields and extract from nature. However, the natural resources of forest, water and soil are often overused. The ecologically valuable and sensitive mangrove forests of the Gulf of Fonseca are acutely endangered. We support the farming families in improving their farming methods through agroecological practices. They thus reconcile resource conservation with higher crop yields.
