OUR PROJECTS
🌿 Healthy Olive Trees, Stronger Harvests, More Resilient Communities.
In Al-Bab, northern Syria, our Syrian Olive Sustainability Project is moving forward with agricultural training for its second group of 45 olive farmers.
As the autumn harvest season approaches, these training sessions focus on essential olive tree care, seasonal treatments, pest management, sustainable agricultural practices, and harvesting guidelines.
🌱 Why does this matter?
After years of conflict and limited access to agricultural resources, practical knowledge is essential to help Syrian farmers protect their olive trees, improve production quality, and strengthen their livelihoods.
By investing in local skills, we are supporting more sustainable olive farming and helping communities build a more resilient agricultural future.
🤝 Implemented by @iaco_sy , in partnership with Mercy Hands Europe, with the generous support of @eafoundationuk .

Exciting progress from Dassenech, southern Ethiopia!
Together with our local partner, Agri-Service Ethiopia (ASE), we are taking important steps towards implementing the Sustainable Fruit Production - Value Chain Development Project.
🌱 2 hectares of farmland have been officially approved for future banana cultivation, within the 13.8-hectare agricultural area developed through our previous Eco-Irrigation Project.
📋 Project preparations are progressing, including administrative procedures, recruitment and coordination with local authorities.
Building on these foundations, our project aims to promote climate-resilient agriculture, strengthen food security and create sustainable livelihood opportunities for local communities.
🙏 We warmly thank our donors, Coromandel Foundation and @kantonbaselstadt, for making this new initiative possible!

🌿 A new year of support begins in the olive groves of Al-Bab, Syria!

🌱 EMPOWERING THE NEXT GENERATION OF ENTREPRENEURS IN ETHIOPIA!
In the conflict-affected Amhara region, limited economic opportunities make it difficult for young people to build sustainable livelihoods.
Through WAP II, Mercy Hands Europe and Agri Service Ethiopia (ASE), in collaboration with the local Technical and Job Creation Office, organised a three-day entrepreneurship training for 50 unemployed young people, including 21 women.
Participants explored local value chains, small business development, entrepreneurship, financial management and record keeping, gaining essential knowledge to identify opportunities and develop future income-generating activities.
💙 Beyond training, WAP II aims to strengthen youth economic independence, promote entrepreneurship and build more resilient communities.
We are grateful to our implementing partner Agri Service Ethiopia and for the valuable contributions of @ville_de_geneve , @collonge.bellerive , Commune de Vandœuvres, Commune de Chêne-Bourg and @villedelancy_officiel , which are helping make this work possible. 🙏
