In line with the EU’s global objective of the KUNGAHARA Call for proposals, the overall objective of the project is to strengthen resilient food systems and nutrition security in Rwanda. To tackle the different factors hindering food availability and nutrition, the project will enact locally-led and owned change at every stage of the food system – production, aggregation, processing, distribution and consumption – through two complementary supply and demand outcomes:
Outcome 1: Equitable, sustainable, inclusive, productive and nutrition sensitive agricultural value chains in Gicumbi, Rulindo and Gakenke districts are strengthened; and
Outcome 2: The consumption of diverse and nutrient rich foods by vulnerable households, in particular women and children, in Gicumbi, Rulindo and Gakenke district is increased.
The project is targeting 31,000 small holder farmers and will use a holistic set of interventions to enhance food systems in a sustainable manner, equipping women and youth farmers ‘groups and cooperatives within the selected environment and nutrition-sensitive value chains with the skills, connections, and support to improve production and access to markets, and as a result, nutritious food availability and increase its consumption.
One of the project's goals is to promote equitable, sustainable, inclusive, productive, and nutrition-sensitive agricultural value chains in the districts of intervention. To achieve this objective, the project intends to provide beneficiaries with necessary tools and materials to enhance their farming practices, thereby improving the quality and quantity of their produce.
Given this objective, DUHAMIC ADRI plans to procure 3 small-scale technology equipment called a " Movable surface solar pump " to support the farming activities of KUNGAHARA farmer beneficiaries. These initiatives aim to encourage farmers to adopt market-oriented farming practices, enabling them to generate income and diversify food production. The equipment has an objective of providing versatile solution to enhance agricultural productivity, improving water management, and promoting resilience in farming systems.
