Linking women from India to Zambia in South-South technology transfer

BetterWorld has developed a unique South-South technology transfer which links women in India and Zambia. Our elite Pongamia pinnata saplings start their journey in Southern India, where they are deleafed, desoiled and fumigated before their long trip to Zambia.
