FAID Experiences

Over the past five years, FAID has implemented projects that have positively impacted the community. One of our key initiatives is the Environmental Conservation and Management (Mtengo Wanga) project, which has been running in the Chikwawa district for the past three years. This project involves planting and taking care of trees in the community.

We have also conducted workshops on environmental conservation with youths in the Chikwawa district community and formed a youth farm club. The club operates an irrigation scheme, where the youth grow vegetables and other viable crops to promote sustainability.
