FarmAble Livelihoods Project for Youth with Disabilities.

In collaboration with the Barbados Environmental Conservation Trust, this project offers youth with disabilities greater opportunities to learn and enhance their capabilities pertaining to environmental conservation and food sustainability through projects focused on aquaponics, rabbit and poultry rearing, and sustainable agriculture systems for crop production. The Project takes place across 3 schools - Challenor Creative Arts and Training Centre, The Ann Hill School and The Derrick Smith School and Vocational Centre.
