Assikoi is a community of approximately 16,000 people in the rain forest of the La Me region of Côte d'Ivoire. Assikoi is only accessible by a sandy road leading to the district town of Adzope. The people live from small-scale agriculture, in which they develop small fields in the rain forest by slash-and-burn agriculture techniques. Due to the rapid leaching of the soil and erosion as a result of heavy rainfall, these fields cannot be used in a sustainable manner. This leads to further impoverishment of the population and to constantly increasing wastelands. Help build a cooperative for sustainable agriculture.
