Countries where GardenAfrica operates
GardenAfrica's partnerships are currently focused on South Africa, Swaziland, Namibia and Zimbabwe.

Zimbabwe
Promoting skills training in plant-based livelihoods in Zimbabwe.
GardenAfrica is committed to build the capacity of local organisations which struggle to provide vital services in health, education and agricultural extension, in the absence of any coherent formal state provision. In consultation with these organisations, GardenAfrica has identified the need to promote improved smallholder productivity and trade, education and nutritional health.

South Africa - Living Classrooms: Sustainable Schools Project (SEED), Cape Flats
The area on the outskirts of Cape Town is a poverty stricken area. Overcrowding due to rapid urbanisation has led to a degradation of the environment where communities struggle to survive alongside dwindling wildlife. The high level of HIV infection places further hardship on these communities, as access to nutritious food is essential to building immune systems, whilst assisting concentration and learning.
