Every farmer trained contributes to community resilience, sustainable agriculture, and local food security. The Farmers’ Clubs Project in Quinara started its first phase in 2023 and ended in October 2025.
ADPP-GB worked in cooperation with Swiss Aid, NGOs such as Tostan, COPE, AA, OGD and is structured around four pillars: social cohesion, leadership and management, agroecology and the transformation and marketing of agricultural products.
Between January and April 2025, 265 training activities took place involving 4.150 farmers addressing sustainable agriculture practices, community leadership, conflict management, and environmental sanitation.
Agricultural infrastructure was enhanced with wells, solar irrigation, and fencing in three communities, although shortages in materials and quality issues, along with delays in implementation, were identified.
The activities resulted in the production of 8,438 kg of peanuts, beans, and vegetables.
Micro-entrepreneur groups were trained, and 50 groups in agriculture, fishing, and poultry were selected for potential funding. After negotiations with the partners, it is expected to start the second phase in 2026.
