With the help of a mini farm, we want to <strong>strengthen the practical skills of young Cameroonians<\/strong> in the field of agriculture and contribute to <strong>food security <\/strong>in Cameroon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>What has happened so far? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">The farm was the first major project of the BEF. We bought a plot of land in a small town in Cameroon and three Chinese food processing machines. A Cameroonian architect then designed the farm. BEF also paid for advanced <strong>agricultural training<\/strong> for a young Cameroonian woman by an expert trained in the United States. This advanced training now enables her to provide agricultural training to other people in Cameroon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, the farm is being built and the first food is being planted. Many locals are involved in the construction process, which <strong>creates jobs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"984\" height=\"432\" data-id=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm.jpg 984w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm-300x132.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm-768x337.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 984px) 100vw, 984px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"415\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm2-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-415\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm2-rotated.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm2-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"554\" data-id=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm4-1024x554.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm4-1024x554.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm4-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm4-768x416.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm4-1200x650.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm4.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"598\" data-id=\"414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm3-1024x598.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm3-1024x598.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm3-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm3-768x449.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bef-stattarmut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Mini-Farm3.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-939bcd2\" data-block-id=\"939bcd2\"><style>.stk-939bcd2{height:0px !important}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-aeab346\" data-block-id=\"aeab346\"><style>.stk-aeab346{height:3px !important}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-3b08381\" data-block-id=\"3b08381\"><style>.stk-3b08381{height:30px !important}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Financing of school fees<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many parents in Cameroon find it difficult to cover the costs incurred at school for their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>In particular, this involves&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the tuition charged by some schools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>school clothes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>school books <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>BEF took over the school fees of about 30 children in Bandjoun in the period from 2021 to 2023, thus providing <strong>direct financial support<\/strong> for socially disadvantaged families.

However, the processing of the cocoa often takes place in other countries. The cocoa is therefore mostly sold raw, which means fewer jobs and less income for Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Our solution<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Local farmers should learn to <strong>process the cocoa locally<\/strong> in order to be able to generate higher income in Nigeria. To this end, the BEF has already started building a cocoa plantation in Ile-Ife, a town in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From January 2024, the work on site will be expanded. With the <strong>hiring of local employees from Ile-Ife<\/strong>, the processing of the already planted cocoa will begin. Thus, jobs will be created where the employees can gain a lot of <strong>practical experience.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-d9d51d7\" data-block-id=\"d9d51d7\"><style>.stk-d9d51d7{height:10px !important}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Namibia<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Compost project<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The latest project of the BEF in cooperation with <a href=\"https:\/\/greenplanet-gardening.com\/\">Green Planet<\/a> is the <strong>distribution of compost boxes<\/strong> (incl. compost starter pack) at different households in Windhoek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>The BEF would like to address the following challenges with this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dryness and drought hamper food cultivation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No waste separation as a reason for environmental pollution<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Children do not learn agricultural skills at school<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A compost helps to <strong>recycle large parts of the waste<\/strong> produced in a household.
