The Peter Munga Foundation in association with the Yara Prize, seeks to contribute to the reduction of hunger and poverty in rural Kenya through the promotion of sustainable agriculture, development of local markets and encouragement of innovation and entrepreneurship, in order to increase food productivity, security and availability.
This is in dedication to contributing to the United Nations Millennium Development Goals-to halve hunger and poverty in Africa- and the call for an African Green Revolution. Through the creation of strategic networks and partnerships, the Peter Munga Foundation directs resources, knowledge and practice to add value, demonstrate new possibilities, transform lives and create hope for the rural poor in Kenya. |
