In Malanville, soil degradation, poor management of organic waste, low income diversification and a still-limited environmental culture reduce communities' resilience to climate and economic shocks.
AGIRE offers an integrated 24-month response: produce better, turn waste into a resource, diversify income through beekeeping and train the next generation.
Objective
Contribute to the environmental and socio-economic resilience of Malanville's communities through sustainable farming systems, organic waste recovery and environmental education.
What we are doing
Every gardener, beekeeper or producer is registered with GPS coordinates, photos and a needs assessment (KoboToolbox).
Training in water-efficient irrigation, pest management, composting and organic waste recovery.
Hives, protective equipment and quality support for 200 people, at least 30% of them women and young people.
Environmental education sessions for pupils and teachers across the commune.
Community environmental management plans, with support tailored to each producer's vulnerability and motivation.
Targets
Targets from the project document (2025–2026 version). Actual results will be published as implementation proceeds.
