Zimbabwe

In the Chimanimani District of Zimbabwe, the population is made up of mostly smallholder farmers who deal with a very dry climate and infertile soil. The district’s poverty prevalence rate is higher than 75%; 40% of households are headed by women and have been identified as particularly vulnerable. PWRDF has partnered with TSURO in order to teach local farmers the skills they need to address their nutrition and help train them on best practice agriculture techniques, crop diversification, sustainable land and soil management. The project will target 3,000 households and 21 community health clubs.
