'Hongos Imbabura': Empowering Indigenous Women in Ecuador through oyster mushroom farming

The diaspora organisation NEZLA e.V. creates income opportunities for indigenous women facing economic and social disadvantages in a rural region of Ecuador and works together with a local association of indigenous women. Trough the project ‘Hongos Imbabura’, women from Cotacachi are trained in the techniques for the artisanal production of oyster mushrooms along with their commercialisation and marketing. https://diaspora2030.de/en/what-we-do.... #DiasporaEngagement #Ecuador #WomenEmpowerment
