We seeks to utilize this improved human and institutional capacities to in turn build the capacity of smallholder farmers.
NCRC is committed to supporting local farmers. We believe that investing in Indigenous communities leads to the success of the great lake region, and Uganda. With the Professional Agrologists we outsource, we want to see agriculturally-capable land being brought into full production. To meet that goal, we work alongside Indigenous leadership and staff to create agri-food suitability assessments based on the capacity of the land and the community and to meet the desired level of business development.
Through cooperation and partnerships with Indigenous communities, NCRC is committed to developing strategies and practices that will support and promote projects that focus on Indigenous sustainability, community health, resource recovery, food sovereignty, job opportunities, and more career options for future generations of Indigenous peoples and communities.
We recognize the diversity of Indigenous cultures, the importance of Indigenous heritage, and that Indigenous peoples are the original and continuing stewards of their Traditional Territories through Treaty Rights and Title.
