Solution
Laos is the third-largest coffee producer in Southeast Asia, making coffee an important source of income for local populations.
With five years' experience in the coffee sector in Laos, CARE is intervening in the Region of Dakcheung to make coffee production more efficient, fair, ecological and resilient to climate change.

Existing environmental issues are mapped and 400 coffee producers (70% of whom are women) are trained in greener, more sustainable production techniques, as well as in the valorization and disposal of waste from coffee production.
Small producers are also supported in order to promote their access to local and international markets, and thus strengthen their economic autonomy, particularly that of women.
