02/24/NP/14
Climate change is one of the environmental challenges which has been affecting food crops, disrupting flowering and fruiting and causing low yield of crops, thus contributing to overall food insecurity in Pakistan. In the current scenario, it is essential to cultivate a notion which can help to reduce the drastic effects of extreme environmental challenges. To deter these environmental challenges, greening futures: Enabling women to strengthen their culinary Herbs Gardening skills can serve as a sustainable solution and promoting environmental consciousness. A 5-day extensive training program for at least 110 Women in Faisalabad followed by a post-training conference on the World Environment Day will be a part of this project. The project aims to improve understanding of sustainable gardening practice, promoting environmental responsibility, food & nutritional security and and generate entrepreneurial opportunities in future by connecting them with local market and grocery stores.
