Improved food security and income among rural households of Choma Districts by 2025
The Improved Food Security and Income project (IFOSIP) will be implemented in Choma District, Southern Province in Chikandamaulu, Hambelele, kabanze, Kantengwa and Malindi communities under Chief Mapanza. The project will promote food security and village Savings through sustainable organic farming by encouraging target households to use agro-ecological practices as a way of responding to issues of food insecurity, and use of Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA) to promote village savings. This will further be achieved by conducting trainings to target households in crop diversification, open pollinated seed multiplication and support target households with cereals and legume seeds. Community members will be encouraged to save their money with established village savings group and borrow at a minimal rate without collateral requirement for their re-investment.
