Mennonite Central Committee Canada will
support Christian Council of Mozambique with this project aimed to increase
food security for 3,000 families in the Tete Province through the provision of
good quality seeds and improved agriculture techniques that will encourage
increased agriculture productivity. The project will promote vegetable
cultivation and soil conservation techniques. Sand dams will be constructed to
increase the availability of water for field irrigation, which will in turn
increase production and create food security. The sand dams will also create a
source of water for livestock and increase accessible water for improved
hygiene and sanitation in the community.
