Back to Solidaridad North America
Improving worker health
13 March 2017
The Kellogg Company supported Solidaridad in developing training materials to address the causes of Chronic Kidney Disease from non-Traditional causes (CKDnT), an epidemic affecting sugarcane cutters in Central America. This is part of a much larger initiative, funded by the Dutch Postcode Lottery, to attack the root causes of the disease. PepsiCo and Solidaridad’s partnership in India is promoting better farming techniques and water-saving practices that are improving the productivity and livelihoods of sugarcane farmers.
