AZA's Impact
The Agricultural Friends Association (AZA) works in the center department, focusing on agriculture, breeding and community development. AZA uses education and agriculture to create sustainable livelihoods for the Haitian people while restoring the island’s farmlands and forests. Their vision is to promote sustainable development for the people of the region. AZA provides the knowledge and best practices for families to increase their income and ensure a better future for the children in their communities. Recognising that many of our farmers are working parents striving for economic mobility and real prospects for their families, AZA remains steadfast in its commitment to their success.
