Our resources cover environmental protection, climate resilience, WASH and sanitation, sustainable agriculture, the empowerment of women and marginalised groups, and more.

Our manuals and guides are always focused on the learner. We find multiple ways to share information and values that are easy to understand and share.

We share our published research to contribute to the wider public knowledge of the perceptions and priorities of the rural and urban communities we work with.
