We pollinate impact
Beeterra Project aims to include economically vulnerable population in a cycle of personal and economic development.
We are proposing a business model that will predominantly engage rural women, creating new income alternatives.
We work with stingless bees, which represent a strong sign of environmental preservation and regeneration.
Female strength in meliponiculture
We involved rural women in the project, family farmers who are part of traditional communities and/or rural settlements.
These women are already engaged in agricultural, domestic and childcare activities. Working with meliponiculture brings them greater participation in the family income, through an activity pleasure, which can be performed at home.
