A comprehensive five-day packaging workshop was conducted for the representatives of Climate-smart Agriculture Youth and Women groups of the three project sites (Punakha, Trongsa, and Zhemgang districts) to raise awareness about diverse marketing avenues available at both national and international platforms for their community’s local products.
The training had the following objectives:
1.Enhancing the capacity of local communities, specifically youth and women groups, in packaging and marketing their local products.
2.Equipping local producers with essential skills in hygiene, standards, design, labeling, branding, packaging, and marketing for their local products.
3.Fostering self-sufficiency and generate income opportunities within the community.
During the training, the participants were provided the opportunity to explore available resources and facilities that could elevate the value of their existing local products. The workshop was conducted with the technical support from Cottage & Small Industry (CSI), Department of Industry and coordinated by RSPN as part of the ongoing BMUVI-IKI project.
This project is funded by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection (BMUV), Germany through International Climate Initiative (IKI) with co-funding from MAVA Foundation, Switzerland and the Royal Society for Protection of Nature (RSPN).
