Food Security and Agriculture
At Compass Humanitarian, we understand the importance of nourishing both bodies and communities. Our Food Security & Agriculture Program empowers refugees and members of the host community in Turkey to achieve sustainable food production and economic independence. This program equips participants with the knowledge and resources needed to thrive.
We promote environmentally friendly farming techniques that ensure long-term food security and protect precious resources. Participants learn water conservation methods, soil management practices, and sustainable crop rotation. Our program goes beyond just subsistence farming by encouraging participants to explore a variety of income-generating activities related to agriculture. This could include raising livestock, cultivating high-value crops, or developing value-added products like jams, pickles, or dried fruits.
Connecting producers with local markets is key. We help participants build relationships with buyers, understand market trends, and develop essential business skills. Recognizing the vital role women play in agriculture, we provide them with tailored training, resources, and leadership development opportunities to ensure their full participation and success. Knowledge sharing is essential for long-term success. We facilitate farmer-to-farmer exchanges, workshops, and community gardens to foster collaboration and learning among participants.
The Food Security & Agriculture Program is an investment in the future of Turkey. By empowering individuals and fostering agricultural development, we cultivate a path towards self-sufficiency and shared prosperity.
