Every year the prices of staple food scale high while the income of poor household diminishes due to the high unemployment rate. This makes it impossible for individuals to access good quality food thus, the increase in poverty, malnutrition, hunger and starvation among the developing countries. The MDGs report in 2015 shows 800 million people still live in extreme poverty and suffer from hunger. 160 million children under age five are inadequate height due to insufficient food. We work to tackle the following problem
Food insecurity. Hunger and malnutrition among children
Low involvement of youths in agriculture
Limited production space in urban cities
Over dependency on food from the supermarket. DPI employs the integration of urban parks and agricultural production systems (Peri-urban agriculture) using locally available waste materials for production. Our modular park serves as a center for education, relaxation, recreation and connection. DPI works with local communities around EARTH University campus, Guacimo Limon. We offer workshop to schools, families, and tourist around our park.
