Rwanda Twongerekawa Coko Natural Coffee Beans
In 2009, eleven female coffee farmers including Thérèse Nyrangwabije, now president of the coop decided to transform what was being grown as ‘traditional’ coffee into something else. With 384 members now part of the cooperative, Thérèse is proud that 75% of members are women. This is a considerable increase from a couple of years ago. That development means they providing training and support on a number of topics, from small projects that bring in an income, to strategies for reducing soil erosion through planting trees and how to adapt for climate change.
