Community fruit areas
ADéProG is an NGO based in the commune of Nikki in Benin. Its aim is to help reduce poverty and hunger.
Overview of the project
Malnutrition is a scourge that affects a number of African countries, particularly the agricultural populations living in rural areas.
Although anti-malnutrition programmes are being implemented in the areas concerned, the disease still persists and many people die from it every year.
The fruit-growing area is a solution for improving the quality of the diet of people living in rural areas who, despite being made aware of the importance of diversifying their diet and eating fruit, are faced with the problem of fruit being unavailable.
Creating a community fruit-growing area will not only solve the problem of the availability of fruit in rural areas, but will also help to restore the vegetation cover and thus fight to reduce greenhouse gases.
Facilitating access to fruits in rural areas.
