- Abstract
- This article, published on March 30, 2020, discusses the creation of AgriSan, a community market garden in Eastern Uganda, established by Mastercard Foundation Scholars to empower underprivileged women. They grow vegetables, earn income, and gain crucial financial skills. Winning the 2019 Resolution Social Venture Challenge secured funding and mentorship. The goal is for women to save enough to eventually start their own ventures.
