The Central American Dry Corridor is a stretch of territory that runs through Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala. It is estimated that more than 10 million people live in the dry corridor, many of whom are dependent on agricultural activities, especially small-scale production of staple foods such as corn and beans.

This campaign is part of the "Food Security for Populations Affected by Climate Change in Central America" program, which is implemented by Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund Deutschland e.V ; the Association for Cooperation and Community Development of El Salvador (CORDES); the Center for Human Development (CDH) of Honduras; and the Chorti Regional Campesino Association (ASORECH) of Guatemala; with the financial support of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).

The present project aims to strengthen the resiliencia of 70 smallholder families in the context of the drought problem. To achieve this, the three areas of intervention have been identified:

(1) Food security by promoting the cultivation of basic foodstuffs

(2) Improving access to safe water and hygiene education

(3) Health promotion by strengthening local health posts

Together we contribute, together we decide
All of us for inclusive flood risk management!
