During the presence of the Tanzanian president, H.E. Samia Suluhu Hassan, in Brazil for the G20 Leaders' Summit, the Brazilian Cooperation Agency of the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs published a video about the “Beyond Cotton” project, implemented by Brazil, Tanzania and the World Food Program in the Mwanza region.
The images were filmed in March, at the closing ceremony of the project, aimed at promoting food crops associated with cotton as a strategy to increase food security and the income of small farmers. The video shows the main initiatives of the project, implemented in the districts of Misungwi, Kwimba and Magu, such as training and the construction of cisterns and ecological stoves in schools of the three districts; the distribution of biofortified sweet potato and maize seeds; the donation of three motor cultivators and 250 seed drills to the cooperatives in the districts; and nutrition workshops.
