Resumen
Descripción
In Tuvalu, the target beneficiaries are the households in the villages in Tuvalu. The project also targets schools, church communities, women and seamen groups and village elders in order to train them all in sustainable atoll agriculture and to appreciate the use of organic bulking as part of the sustainable food crop growing. All propagation of Banana Mother Blocks in each community would be managed by respectable elders as the lead managers with selected able young men (from the villages) to manage the village blocks. The Agriculture officers will provide technical guidance to the manager and will ensure that the banana blocks will be managed according to the atoll banana management guidelines.
