Hydroponics in Refugee Settlements
Hydroponics in Refugee Settlements
Hydroponic farming offers sustainable agricultural solutions in refugee settlements, enhancing food security and self-sufficiency. This method requires minimal soil and water, making it ideal for challenging environments. Key benefits include:
- Efficient Resource Use: Hydroponics uses up to 90% less water than traditional farming.
- High Yield: Produces more crops in less space and time.
- Nutritional Impact: Provides fresh, nutritious produce, improving health and well-being.

Our hydroponic farming initiatives have been successfully implemented in the following refugee settlements:
- Kyaaka I
- Kyaaka II
- Kiryandongo
- Kyangwali
- Bidi Bidi
- Nakivale
- And others
Impact Statistics
- Refugees Trained: Over 1,500 refugees trained in hydroponic farming techniques.
