and an increasing number of fires are destroying the tree population in Tanzania, leading to a loss of fertile soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The increasingly unpredictable weather is a constant challenge for Tanzanian farmers. When heavy rains or stormy winds hit the bare soil, the humus, the fertile top layer of the soil, is washed away. The result is rapid soil degradation. In addition, rainwater on bare soil runs off only superficially. As a result, it does not feed the groundwater. The groundwater level sinks more and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Soil protection measures, the preservation of trees and selective afforestation counteract this development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The objective of this pilot project<\/strong> in the area of afforestation is to encourage farming families to make part of their farmland available for the regeneration of tree stands and then to afforest this land. These farming families then serve as role models for other families.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\t\t\t<div

objective:<\/strong> to raise awareness of the significance of hygiene for their health among the families of organic farmers. With this purpose in mind, we support and fund the construction of toilet facilities for farming families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Background:<\/strong> Women and girls get the greatest benefit from better hygiene. In-home toilets increase their safety and protect them from harassment and sexual assaults. To leave their homes in the darkness of the night or to be forced to use latrines outside their homes are well-known risks to women and girls in India. In addition, the lack of sanitary facilities promotes bacterial infections primarily among children. As studies demonstrate, the consequences include chronic symptoms of malnutrition permanently putting at risk the cognitive and physical development of youth.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Project cost:<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"bs-columns has-2-columns firstbig style1 row bs-row\">\n\t\t\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-cherry-color has-grey-background-color\"><strong>CHF 300.-<\/strong><br>for the construction of a family toilet<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-squared\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background has-cherry-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/biore-stiftung.ch\/en\/donations\/#Spendenformular\" style=\"color:#ffffff\">DONATE now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"MHU\">Mobile hospital<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A health bus has offered basic medical services to communities in rural India since 2006.
