We won a climate award
We won a top 3 position in the FAO Zambia and Bongohive Facility for Action for Climate Empowerment to Achieve Nationally Determined Contributions (FACE NDC) Challenge for our Forest Pack, which helps farmers plant trees at scale affordably.
The 5-week challenge attracted 150 applicants, 10 finalists after which we came out top 3. Startup founders in Zambia went through a design sprint to sharpen their ideas in Agriculture, Renewable Energy, and Forestry before pitching to a panel of judges. The top 3 innovations received seed funding and business capacity development support.
Our 1kg Forest Pack solves the problem of lack of commercial access to indigenous Zambian tree seeds.
