Agricultural Project Guinea Italia Paguita

About this project

The project seeks to restore the production system in the regions of Conakry and Kankan, in Guinea.

The implementing strategy includes a community-based approach, with a direct involvement of the youth, potential migrants and migrants who come back to those regions. It also incorporates a specific attention on gender issues and women participation. Ensuring a direct participation of local people and a bottom-up approach for the management of the production and the use of the soil will not only increase the level of local awareness, but also enhance the sense of community in those regions. The first expected impact is clearly the increase in horticultural production…
