#32 Cotton farming: About the work of the Indian NGO Grameena Vikas Kendram

How is the current situation of the cotton farmers in India? Which problems are they facing and what are solutions to tackle them? These are just a few of the questions we asked inspiring Sanne Van den Dungen in this Podcast episode. More than one year ago Sanne decided to quit her job in the Netherlands to work for the Indian NGO Grameena Vikas Kendram. The NGO is working in the field of rural development with smallholder farmers. In their RESET cotton project, they work with tribal cotton farmers with a special focus on women and train them in regenerative farming practices. https://gvksociety.org/projects/ Due to the situation during the Corona crisis a lot of the farmers in remote areas are financially struggling and that is why the NGO has set up a donation program.
