Regenerating Shingal
What We Do
Our strategic plan looks to strengthen agricultural production, rebuild community spaces, and invest in infrastructure. We focus on water sources and reforestation and use farming practices that improve soil health and conserve water. We hope to systematically implement renewable sources of energy and increasingly incorporate modern technologies and indigenous wisdom in farming complexes that serve to restore the traditional agro-economy. We provide support to the most vulnerable members of the community.
