Radio l’Espoir – la Voix du Sanguié made a reportage about the workshop of VU and Réseau MARP. Interviews were broadcast on the radio disseminating the work of women, producers of *Non-Timber Forest Products*. Non-Timber Forest Products are the local answer to healthy and affordable nutrition in rural regions of the Sahel, to women entrepreneurship and empowerment, and to a cleaner and healthier environment. Moreover, non-timber products are the key to African regreening initiatives, for more trees of farmland, for soil restauration and a for better, healthier and greener environment.
