Background

There is a continuing developmental need in rural Kenyan communities to improve food security through education. For over a decade, UPEI has been working with Farmers Helping Farmers (FHF), an award-winning Canadian NGO, and various Kenyan rural communities, with a focus on:

  • supporting the development of cooperatives of smallholder dairy farmers
  • enhancing agricultural practices to grow, market and consume nutritious, drought tolerant high value crops
  • interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate student training
