[Nepal] Hope Leads the Way (Improving income through vegetable production)
Format
Peace Winds Japan (PWJ) has accomplished the “Small Agro-Farmers Income Improvement (SAFII)”, a three-year project in Sindhupalchok district, funded by the JICA Partnership Program (JPP), together with the cooperation from the Government of Nepal and PWJ’s local partner organization, Institution for Suitable Actions for Prosperity (ISAP：https://isap.org.np/).
The earthquake that struck Nepal in 2015 claimed a great number of casualties and inflicted immense damage to the afflicted area. Although emergency relief from the government and various organizations were provided shortly after the earthquake, recovery remained a challenge in the long term. When PWJ began its operation in Nepal in 2015, people in the afflicted area were barely able to sustain their livelihoods at a tolerable level.
