DR Congo: Lifting a Weight from Women's Shoulders

- March 31, 2012
Update from COFAPRI - Safeworld Field Partner in DR Congo:
Sometimes, women carry on their back burdens that are heavier than their own weight, just to earn money to feed their children.
We have started a plant and vegetable growing project on a very small plot of land in or near the compound of every member.
Some women are cultivating maize, sorghum, soya beans, beans, vegetable marrows and potatoes. The first harvest was very beneficial to the whole membership of COFAPRI.
