Food insecurity is one of the most pressing daily realities for refugees and host community members alike. Live in Green's agroecology programme equips farmers and students with the techniques and knowledge to grow more food, protect the land, and build long-term food security.
We train communities in eco-friendly agricultural practices including agroforestry, grafting of fruit trees, nursery bed preparation, organic composting, and integrated crop management. By pairing agricultural training with tree planting and soil restoration, we create systems that produce food and restore ecosystems simultaneously.
1.8 million+ tree and fruit tree seedlings distributed since 2016
32+ hectares of degraded land restored through community-led reforestation
Organic compost produced and distributed to participating farmers
School-based agroforestry demonstrations established in Kyaka II settlement schools
Youth trained in nursery management, tree grafting, and sustainable land use
Over the years, LIVE IN GREEN has implemented high-impact projects in partnership with global donors and local stakeholders.
