#Nahda_Makers is conducting specialized training courses in the field of home gardens

In the context of supporting the sustainable management of water resources and strengthening the resilience of agricultural communities, activities of “The Integrated Water Resources Management to Enhance Resilience of Agriculture and Food Security” were implemented in Al-Salow and Al-Mawasit districts of #Taiz Governorate. The project is funded by #KfW, implemented by #UNDP, in cooperation with #Nahda_Makers, as part of integrated interventions aimed at improving food security and livelihoods in the most affected areas.

The activities included the implementation of forty specialized training courses on home gardens, distributed as twenty courses in Al-Mawasit District and twenty courses in Al-Salow District. These trainings aimed to enable households to apply sustainable agricultural practices based on the efficient use of water.

The training objectives focused on strengthening the capacities of beneficiaries—particularly women and smallholder farmers—to establish and manage productive home gardens that contribute to improving household nutrition and income, enhancing self-sufficiency, and reducing the impacts of climate change.

A total of 896 beneficiaries benefited from the distribution of home gardens in the two districts, with 448 beneficiaries in Al-Mawasit District and 448 in Al-Salou District. Beneficiary households received practical knowledge and essential input that support the sustainability of these gardens and increase their productivity.

The home gardens training activity aims to empower beneficiary households, especially women and smallholder farmers, to acquire the knowledge and practical skills needed to establish and manage sustainable home gardens that rely on the efficient use of water, thereby contributing to improved food security and household nutrition, enhanced self-reliance, and the creation of additional sources of income support.
