28 May 2019, Ittifok, Tajikistan - FAO matching grant specialist Khamidov Nazarhudja talks with the Mirzosharipov couple in their cold storage. The facility equipment will be supported by FAO.
The family received a matching grant and business training to start a small agribusiness under the "Developing Capacity for Strengthening Food Security and Nutrition in Selected Countries of the Caucasus and Central Asia" project. The ultimate goal is to channel remittances of the seasonal labour migrant father into something productive, and, eventually, prevent him for migration in the future.
