Green Girls plays for Global Goal 2 Zero Hunger


Why is this Global Goal Important to the team?

Héctor Abad algún día dijo que el hambre era una enfermedad, y nosotros queremos curarla. La desnutrición es una de las causas de muerte más comunes no solo en nuestro país si no también al rededor del mundo, ¡en pleno siglo XXI! Por eso queremos empezar por las partes de nuestra comunidad que aún no tienen tres comidas completas al día. No queremos entregarles un beneficio temporal, si no una opción sostenible para vencer el hambre.

Hector Abad once said that hunger is a disease, and we want to cure it. We are in the 21st century and malnutrition is still one of the most common causes of death not only in our country, but also around the world!

That's why we want to start with the parts of our community that still don't have three full meals a day. We do not want to give them a temporary benefit, but a sustainable option to overcome hunger.


Goal How will the Team take action for the Goal?

Queremos evaluar hogares y/o comunidades para encontrar maneras de instalar huertas individuales o comunitarias. Enseñarles el arte de cultivar ciertos alimentos que completen su ingesta de comida diaria. Pero no solo el hecho de construirlas, si no compartir con la comunidad este conocimiento para que sea duradero y siga marcando la diferencia por muchas generaciones. Además, genera un sentimiento de unidad en una comUNIDAD, para que juntos trabajemos por el otro.

We want to assess homes and/or communities to find ways to install individual or community gardens. To teach them the art of growing certain foods to supplement their daily food intake. However, not just building them, but also sharing the knowledge with the community so that it will last and continue to make a difference for many generations to come. It also generates a feeling of unity in a community, so that together we work for each other.


How will the Team measure impact and reach?

Cantidad de alimentos producidos por huerta y cuántas personas se benefician de esta. Esto se logrará a través de encuestas y observaciones. Haremos este sondeo antes y después de construir la huerta para ver la diferencia.

The amount of food produced per garden and how many people benefit from it. This will be achieved through surveys and observations. We will do this survey before and after building the garden to see the difference.


How will the Team know your success?

Realizando visitas periódicas a las huertas para revisar si realmente fueron un proyecto duradero y sostenible. También, realizar evaluaciones para ver si el proyecto se puede replicar en otras comunidades. A largo plazo, también sería exitoso si los productos pueden ser vendidos o intercambiados.

Carrying out periodic visits to the gardens to check if they were really a long-lasting and sustainable project. Also, conducting evaluations to see if the project can be replicated in other communities. In the long term, it would also be successful if the products can be sold or exchanged.
