Hands-on training for women vegetable farmers in Kisewe and Kiburugwa to prepare natural pesticides, plant boosters and fungicides from local plants.
For many women vegetable growers around Dar es Salaam, pests and plant diseases mean buying expensive chemical products — costs that cut into household income and can harm soil, water and health.
WEMASA organised practical, field-based training for women farmer groups in Kisewe and Kiburugwa. Working directly in the vegetable plots, participants learned step by step how to prepare:
Sessions combined demonstrations, group discussion and practice, so every participant left able to make the preparations herself — and to share the knowledge with neighbours.
Interactive climate change awareness sessions that reached 3,700 students in 8 secondary schools across Temeke District.
Greening school compounds with pupils and students at Kibasila, Kongowe, Lionel and Vingunguti — building a culture of environmental care from a young age.
Mobilising volunteers, residents and partners to clear waste from beaches, streets and public spaces — and to keep them clean.
