In Bulo, Butambala District, even when women contribute significantly to the global coffee sector, they have lower access to resources, such as land, credit and information, than men. This often results in a measurable gender gap in economic outcomes, including yields, productivity and farm income. JKCC is closing the gap through gender inclusive trainings to foster empowerment and achieve gender equality.

Therefore Women, youths and men should all benefit from the coffee value chain.

The Coffee Plant (yes, the plant that produces that beautiful caffeinated beverage) makes a great and beautiful addition to your garden with deep green leaves that have a beautiful texture. It takes a few years (up to 2-3) for a Coffee Plant to mature enough to produce flowers, and conditions need to be optimal for the development of the berries. The Plants love bright light, but not direct sun. They need to be watered regularly and will droop when they are under-watered and in need of a drink. They perk right back up within a few hours (just like you when you get a coffee after lunch)! Keep the soil moist but don’t let the roots sit in water. Coffee plants also enjoy a humid environment to help keep them thriving.
