Emergency Seed Bank to avert famine in Haiti.

Emergency Seed Bank to avert famine in Haiti.

Organization information

Sonje Ayiti Organization

Location: Newport, United States of America

Summary

Poor rural families and farmers risk serious threat to their food and nutrition security that could escalate into famine in the aftermath of COVID-19. Undernourishment and a significant drop in agricultural production rates will result if an aggressive recovery plan is not implemented to avoid sending struggling farmers even deeper into poverty traps and malnutrition. The Seed Bank uses an inter-generational approach to strengthen community and serve as a model for social and behavioral changes.
