AMPO Ouagadougou
Success story in Kaya
Kaya is a town in the Centre-Nord region, north-east of Ouagadougou. TondTenga, our agricultural college, works together with local rural communities including Kaya.
12 young people formed a cooperative there after completing their training and the town gave them a piece of land which they are now able to cultivate. AMPO donated machines and farm equipment to secure their livliehood and provide food for the community.
It was a great honour when the tribal leader not only approved the initiative, he even attended the opening. This success story is an indication of the work done by AMPO to secure the future.
All this is thanks to the Fondation Dr. Elvire Engel in Luxemburg, cooperating with AMPO for many years, and underlining the importance of sustainability.
