| Title: | Tajikistan - Community-based Agricultural Support Project (CASP) - October 2023 |
| Description: |
Nigora Jonbutaeva is a young woman with disability who lives in Mohinov Village in the Dusti district of southwestern Tajikistan’s Khatlon Region. With the income the Village Organization earns from the agricultural machinery and contributions paid into the village organization’s budget by the women’s income generating groups, the village organization has been able to support some new activities. For example, it sponsored Nigora to start a handicraft business making and selling crocheted items. The Community-based Agriculture Support Project (CASP) stimulates inclusive economic growth and poverty reduction in rural Tajikistan. Its activities help communities and dehkan (smallholder) family farmers access productive infrastructure and services, leading to sustainable agricultural production, equitable income-generating opportunities, and improved living standards. CASP works with village organizations (VOs) to develop community-driven action plans that define their own improvement initiatives. Village-level participation in decision making is critical to the success of these plans and helps establish a sense of community ownership and cohesion. |
