Groundswell International: Cultivating Women Farmers in Ghana

“We have an African saying that ‘I am because we are’. And everybody in the community can go ask anyone of them, 'Hey I want you to come and teach me how to do pruning on my farm' and they feel proud that they are delivering service to the community.” – Daniel Banuoku, CIKOD Program Director. In this video, watch how women farmers are organizing themselves and helping each other by sharing their experiences and by restoring native seeds. Also hear from Groundswell’s partners in the field as they work to protect indigenous seeds and build on the existing capacities of farmers and the systems they already use.
