loading . . . How Amina Rebuilt Her Life in Afghanistan Through Farming Amina, a mother of 10 from south-eastern #Afghanistan, has supported her family alone since her husband died nine years ago. Agriculture is her only source of living. "My son and I work the land, we plant, harvest, and manage all the farm work alone," says Amina.
Due to years of conflict, drought, and lack of access to agricultural resources farming is far from easy but Amina does not give up. We support Afghans like Amina to be more effective farmers: "They gave us fertiliser, five kind of vegetable seeds, two shovels, a spade, and a watering can," says Amina. "We use the vegetable for guests, share with neighbours, and sell any leftovers," she adds.
With our Alliance2015 partner, CESVI and funding from the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS), we supported 190 farmers across 36 villages with seeds and fertilisers, 95 women received kitchen garden kits and tools to grow vegetables, 28,000 people received hygiene awareness session and hygiene kits. Through cash-for-work activities we are also helping to rebuild karezes, wells, canals and much more.
