Resumen
Descripción
By January 2017 the number of Syrian refugees in Turkey had reached more than 2.8 million. Over 90 percent were hosted in communities while the remaining 10 percent resided in camps. Women and children represented more than 70 percent of the refugee population, requiring targeted food security and nutritional support. In response to this, the project was designed to urgently provide materials and supplies for greenhouse production, and assistance to increase the capacity of the camp’s agricultural technical personnel, as well as the capacities and skills of the refugees in greenhouse vegetable production and greenhouse technology. The project would provide materials and equipment to support the establishment of a new 8 000 m2 greenhouse and enable the rapid production of vegetables for 15 000 newly arrived refugees. It would also provide training to both technicians and refugees in greenhouse vegetable production and management.
