Albertine Rift Society (ARCOS) Network

ARCOS Network works with 32 communities in Rwanda and Uganda, hosting rural youth to learn about managing traditional seeds from elders, organizing gatherings on native fruits in the mountain region, and helping communities develop agroecological enterprise opportunities. The principle partners of ARCOS for this project are, in Uganda, the Kapchebut Elgon Farmers Association and the Kanaba Community Development & Echuya Forest Conservation Association and, in Rwanda, the Jyambere Munyarwanda Farmers Association.
