Introduction
Education is very important and a key to breaking the poverty cycle, however, many children in poorer or more rural areas struggle to stay in school and concentrate effectively as they are struggling with hunger and lack of nutritious meals. As well as affecting the children, hunger also affects the community members and staff which is why these community gardens could help to eliminate a range of issues.
Report
We have fully installed an aquaponics system at a local township school in Cape Town which will be launched next month providing the community with fresh produce and clean water while at the same time providing education on food security to the children at the school!
