A Fair Cup: Ensuring the rights of smallholder tea farmers in Kenya
Project disclaimer
Description
This project will reduce poverty and improve the rights and livelihoods of smallholder tea farmers across three districts in Kenya by enabling them to develop a collective voice, engage directly with local decision making processes, and ensure transparent and accountable representation amongst tea sector representatives. This includes: raising awareness of farmers’ rights under new government tea legislation; supporting farmers to form groups through which they can make their collective voices heard; and working with tea factories to make them more transparent and accountable. Expected outcomes include a 20% increase in farmers’ income; improved control over their livelihoods (improved production, input into where their tea is sold) and greater farmer representation at factory and KTDA level. This will benefit 30,000 farmers and their families (180,000 beneficiaries).;
