OPAS
About
The OPAS Association (Organisation for the Promotion of Solidarity Agroecology) was created in Lomé, Togo, on the 2nd of July, 2018. It was registered with the Ministry of Territorial Administration, Decentralisation and Local Authorities on August 6th, 2019, under the number 0729 MATDCL SG-DLPAP-DOCA. The OPAS association aims to contribute to improving the socio-economic living conditions of grassroots communities in a human, sustainable, and participatory development approach through the promotion of agroforestry. It operates in three areas: Social Entrepreneurship, Sustainable Organic Agriculture, and the Environment. Beneficiaries come from rural populations, in particular: poor and orphaned children, young people, and rural women farmers, and an agro-ecological farm school which supports these beneficiaries in adaptation actions to climate change.
OPAS supports rural women through a solar-powered well, helping them to keep their gardens during dry season and drought periods.
