In Nicaragua, as part of our work to reduce disaster risk, we trained 120 people, equipping them with the knowledge and tools to prevent, prepare for and respond to adverse events, thereby strengthening communities’ resilience to emergencies. We also worked on maternal and child health activities and supported small-scale agricultural producers.

In Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, we carried out activities to promote proper hygiene habits and install sanitary infrastructure, thereby reducing the risk of water-related diseases.

To strengthen youth empowerment, 2,548 young people participated in job training, and we financed 29 micro-initiatives to improve their employability. We also worked with agricultural cooperatives, strengthening their capacities in sustainable production, market access and organisational management.

Throughout the year, we provided technical assistance, promoted agroecological practices and facilitated access to inputs and financing, contributing to improving farmers’ productivity and resilience to climate and economic challenges.
