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.
