Inclusive development in Guaviare

The bloody conflict in Colombia has lasted for decades. It has vanished from the headlines - but the suffering remains. Hilfswerk International has been actively in involved in development assistance in Colombia since 15 years. We support indigenous families, children and women on their way into a better future.

Colombia’s agricultural potential is vast - however, the indigenous population hardly profits from the natural prosperity of their region. Hilfswerk International supports families through inclusive agricultural development and sustainable cultivation methods. A special focus lies on river basin management in the Guaviare region.

• Integral, sustainable cultivation plans for about 300 family farms
• Revitalizing traditional agricultural plots and methods
• Supporting the integration of indigenous groups
• Support of locally manufactured handicrafts and their marketing
• Support of local innovation and small businesses 

More than 32,000 children, mothers and fathers of the indigenous population and the farmers in the Guaviare region
