Climate-vulnerable agriculture and chronic poverty trap rural families in cycles of economic insecurity while sustainable income opportunities like beekeeping remain out of reach.

In Sirajganj, families depend on unpredictable farming that fails when weather turns harsh. Women and unemployed youth lack the skills, equipment and market access needed to pursue eco-friendly beekeeping - a livelihood that could generate steady income and improve crop yields through pollination. Without these resources, communities remain locked in poverty with declining agricultural productivity.

The Problem.
