Very many of our project participants are young people aged between 20 and 30.
Women, particularly those heading single parent families, in rural communities in sub Sharan Africa. We teach them to become competent Beekeepers for Life. We provide materials to make hives and protective clothing.
Individuals, traditionally marginalised by their communities due to a disability are supported with beekeeping training. This in turn gives them the chance to be empowered as independent individuals and have a respected role in the community.
Increase in household income for basic goods, medicines and education from sales of honey.
Increase local skills, education and employment through activities related to beekeeping
Increased empowerment of women by enabling them to earn independently.
Improved health and wellbeing. Honey is viewed as natural medicine in Africa not a sweetener.
Improvement in environmental conservation and food security through improved crop pollination.
