This project aims to strengthen CAFICO's sustainable zero-carbon coffee production program by implementing agroforestry systems that significantly contribute to carbon sequestration. 360 coffee farmer partners are directly involved in this project in Corquín, Copán, Honduras.

At the Volcanic San Marcos School - in collaboration with Funcafé, Finca El Platanillo and Finca El Panorama - 5 students are trained to graduate with a Coffee High School diploma and to become agents of economic and social development. Leadership and entrepreneurial training, with respect for spirituality and cultural identity are key pillars in the curriculum.

This public-private partnership project is a demonstration project focusing on climate change mitigation and adaptation through water-efficient irrigation on approximately 123 hectares and regenerative agriculture on 440 hectares in Lyamungo and Manushi Narumo farms. The project also supports awareness campaigns and capacity-building initiatives, reaching 3,500 cooperative members.

This public-private partnership project promotes a sustainable and reliable coffee supply chain from Tanzania to Europe by implementing water-efficient irrigation on 120 hectares of Kyumasha and Fonrwa farms. The project also includes regenerative agriculture, capacity-building sessions, and a strategic sustainable market strategy, benefiting 2,700 cooperative members.

At the Las Flores Coffee School in Santa Rosa, Guatemala, 4 students are trained to graduate with a Coffee High School diploma and to become agents of economic and social development. Leadership and entrepreneurial training, with respect for spirituality and cultural identity are key pillars in the curriculum.

By installing 32 solar panels with 120 cells each in the wet mill, the objective of this project is to support the Nuevo Sendero cooperative in the generation of clean electric energy for its wet mill and water pump in Nueva Santa Rosa, Guatemala. The solar panels will significantly reduce the coffee cooperative's CO2 footprint. This installation marks a major step forward in the cooperative's commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.

This specific coffee is called Tanzania “Tumaini”, meaning “HOPE” in Kiswahili. This fully washed Rainforest Alliance coffee has a balanced cup, fine acidity, milk chocolate body with fruity flavors, berry and tobacco notes, bright sweetness and rounded with smooth finish. It is produced by APK, a business owned by a family group with deep roots in Colombia under the leadership of Alejandro Galante, which makes APK uniquely Tanzanian with a Colombian feel. Through the EFICO Foundation project 'Kilimanjaro Water and Food For all', APK, together with Herencia Value Your Legacy and EFICO seek to mitigate productive, social, environmental and financial risks for their operations in Tanzania, while improving resilience in their coffee value chain through the implementation of regenerative and water efficient agricultural systems for coffee and maize seeds in 2 APK farms to restore soil productivity and grant access to water and food for rural communities in Kilimanjaro. Reach out to our team to provide you with more info here.

By increasing water efficiency and reducing risks along the coffee & food value chains, Kilimanjaro Water & Food for All will improve living conditions for 2,700+ families. It deploys an innovative, comprehensive and scalable model for water management & regenerative agriculture to speed productivity recovery, secure rural water and maize seeds supply, reducing CO2 emissions through best irrigation and water use practices linked to water stewardship in 2 farms in Kilimanjaro, Tanzania.  

The overall objective of this project is to improve the quality of life of 150 students in El Pinal, Copan, Honduras.
