The FoodProof Project

This is a project that will create micro-scale self-sufficient food systems that are low-cost and medium-term to isolated communities suffering from food insecurity and malnutrition. The project will support communities to produce their own food using modern resource-efficient methods such as vertical farming, hydroponics, community gardens, and alternative economies. We will collaborate with experts and develop trainings, toolkits, guidebooks, and easily transferable knowledge to young people in these communities to empower them to grow their own food.
