Nonprofit Overview
Causes: International, International Agricultural Development, International Development, International Peace & Security
Mission: Our mission is to get rural people out of poverty. We do this by investing in agricultural interventions that substantially raise farmers' incomes.
Programs: Wvi addresses the root causes of hunger and unemployment using a scalable development model based on self-sustaining, ecologically sound methods of agriculture. By far the most impactful intervention wvi has accomplished is the building of large irrigation systems in eastern congo. Key to accomplishing agricultural success is the use of ox based agriculture to increase the production of individual farmers. During 2018 and after, wvi plans, using models developed in its eastern congo projects, a new focus elsewhere in the world to develop ethical and sustainable human-bovine ecologies.
