Sustainable Growers · Rwanda · Earlier team experience

Putting women’s coffee washing stations on the map.

Pavel and Hubert developed a platform combining georeferenced information about women’s coffee washing stations in Rwanda with indicators for understanding their operations.

The work brought location and indicator data together in a shared information system for Sustainable Growers.
