On Tuesday, December 3, the board of the Wefu Weku community met in Cerro Alto to sign the general agreement for the project, marking the beginning of new stages of development for the community. During the meeting, key topics were discussed regarding the current situation, funding, and the planning for the upcoming year, including the next activities to be carried out as part of the project.

Throughout the meeting, the areas the community plans to address in the coming months were highlighted, with a focus on the Innovation Units (IUs) that will be defined in the next few weeks. While the final selection of these IUs has not yet been completed, some ideas and themes were outlined during the meeting. The community committed to paying special attention to projects that were initiated years ago, such as the community warehouse, with the goal of revitalizing them through the implementation of appropriate technologies and concrete actions.

One of the main focuses will be climate-smart livestock, seeking to adapt to current environmental challenges and improve livestock production in a sustainable manner. The Wefu Weku community will make a significant effort to integrate innovative technological solutions that align with their specific needs and respect their cultural identity.

This agreement represents another step toward strengthening the community, where collaboration, innovation, and respect for the natural environment come together to improve the living conditions of all its members.
