WELCOME TO DEVELOPMENT CONCERN CENTRE

DEVELOPMENT IS OUR CONCERN.  



Bee Keeping      
Bee keeping

 Decc has constructed  bee hives for one hundred  and twenty poor women and one hundred peasant farmers in the Northern Region. This was purposely done to empower the deprived women and their children and the poor peasant farmers. There is food insecurity and extreme poverty among poor women and peasant farmers in the marginalized rural communities in the region and this compels some of the women to migrate to urban and city centres for luggage carrying which is popularly known as “Kayaye” These migrants some times returned home with HIV/AIDS.
