GHNI has contributed a lot in helping the village of Attir. This being one of our Transformational Community Development (TCD) demonstration villages, GHNI does its best to make Attir a role model so that the neighbouring villages can also learn from their daily transformation. It might have taken a long time, but the eagerly awaited fruit is now ready to harvest.

One of our greatest achievements since we started Transformational Community Development (TCD) in the southern part of the country is the method we use to produce drought-resistant fruit trees. This method is now implemented in almost all the villages because, once the trees start to give fruit, the villagers have more food and can make very good money.
