Reinforcing the Social and Economic Solidarity of Farmers in Mahotire, Baie des Moustiques and Lacorne

Food insecurity due to drought and poverty threatens the health and livelihoods of rural farmers and their families in Mahotire Baie des Moustiques and Lacorne in Haiti's North West department. Furthermore lack of capital limits farmers' ability to prosper.

The IAF supports community-led solutions to expand economic opportunities through sustainable agriculture and access to capital.

Our grantee partner Union des Paysans Tt Kole de Mahotire (UPTKMA) trains farmers in sustainable agriculture techniques such as gardening livestock production and seed storage to increase incomes and food security.

UPTKMA also provides financial management training and access to capital through savings and loan associations providing farmers the opportunity to grow their small businesses.
