  Agriculture.  In order to meet the demand of the agricultural products for the children, and to generate income by producing marketable surplus products, Selam Children’s Village has been promoting some small agricultural activities, such as vegetable and flower, dairy and honey production, etc. 


  Women’s Handicrafts.  This small project is designed to help women who are the poorest of the poor. It embraces women who are family heads and could not support their children. They are organized in small handicraft projects, where they are made to work and benefit. Moreover, all members of the women’s family are supported in different ways through this project.
