Advance sustainable opportunities
We have exposed over 100 farmers and youths to opportunities and knowledge outside Kagera. FADECO aims to create a calibre of bold, informed, confident and engaged youth ready to solve issues that matter to them through innovative means. Due to our partnership with local and international partners, we have conducted capacity building training and cultural exchange to build the skills of women, youths and farmers in the region.

Testimonial
I spent 5 weeks working directly in the community creating sustainable solutions to problems, with a focus on protecting the environment. I learned how to design Solar Fruit Dryers and conducted workshops to train farmers in this process as a method of preserving harvests to prevent famine and as an extra source of income.
