Increased Revenue from Safe and Healthy Agriculture Development
IRSHAD
2019 – Present
We have been encouraging job creation and building farmers’ resilience through our agricultural arm IRSHAD, which encompasses all our programs and partnerships.
Its goal is to improve the livelihood of fruits and vegetable growers and their families in Lebanon, empowering them through fostering innovation and new technology, with a focus on gender mainstreaming and youth empowerment.
IRSHAD functions as a hub, offering an array of customized agricultural advisory services and hands-on assistance. Its beneficiaries include farmers and growers, SMEs as well as cooperatives and early-seed entrepreneurs. Since its inception, the program has benefited more than 8,000 fruit and vegetable growers, 20 cooperatives, and 15 SMEs.
