Empowering women in Akinyele in Akinyele LGA

April 2022
We were able to empower 30 women from different ethnic groups with how the Black Soldier Fly can be used as a source of livelihood and they can support their family with it. These women are from rural communities in Akinyele local government area in Ibadan Oyo state. These women are major actors in the agricultural system though are neglected when it comes to accessing the most essential resources. Women are not only five times less likely to own land than men, but they also do not have the financial resources to invest in farming supplies and services. This means that they cannot increase their yields or earn as much as their male counterparts. There is a need to give these women an opportunity to lead a better life and build resilient families and communities. The Black Soldier fly technology offers a space-efficient alternative that doesn’t require necessarily owning a vast piece of land for sustainability. These women are trained on the nitty-gritty of waste management and we will keep working so they can treat 100kg of organic waste per day.
