DIG’s commitment to participatory development is rooted in the principles and practices of regenerative agriculture, allowing us to achieve deep and wide-reaching results that scale organically into the community.

Gardens are a powerful intervention point for systems change. Their very nature is a model for us to work in partnership with people and the land. 

Our adaptive approach puts DIG at the core of the world agenda set by the United Nations for alleviating poverty, protecting the planet, and ensuring peace and prosperity in the world.

 

 

For those living on the fringes, the barriers to good nutrition are broad and nuanced.

DIG’s adaptive program prioritizes uniquely marginalized groups who are often left out of other development opportunities, groups like:

  • Elderly Households

  • People living with HIV

  • Conservation Refugees, (such as the Batwa)

  • People Living with Disabilities

  • Chronically Malnourished Children

  • Young Mothers

  • The Ultra Poor

  • and others, there are no barriers to participation.
