What we do

🌱ODA Project Consulting

We provide professional consulting services related to rural development and agricultural development. We utilize best practices in developing countries through a local-based approach, in which we assess needs and resources at a community level to ensure that we’re providing solutions for the most pressing problems. This paves the way for ongoing success of projects over the long term, empowering locals to act independently even after official project timelines have ended.

🌱Rural Development

Our rural development goals include greater productivity, increased income, adequate food, decent living conditions, access to health care, and a safe and secure environment. Making key improvements in these areas leads to better quality of life not only in the short term, but in the long term as rural residents can invest more resources into the next generation and work to break the cycle of poverty.

🌱Capacity Building

We work in close partnership with government officials and local farmers. By applying Korea’s historic rural development experience to each set of local needs and circumstances, we provide local people and stakeholders with motivation and the ability to envision the next step towards a brighter future. We aim to empower project participants to sustain and expand upon current project parameters, instilling a can-do spirit and providing practical guidance on making further development progress.

🌱Women’s Empowerment

We recognize the value of women’s contributions at all levels, from unpaid domestic labor and small-scale agricultural work to women-run businesses and participation in community decision-making. With our emphasis on assessing local needs, we prioritize listening to women’s voices and addressing the unique challenges that women face in the ongoing process of community development.
