Helping people in Honduras | ASB Foreign Aid

Honduras is one of the countries most affected by climate change. Large parts of the country are located in what is known as the Central American Dry Corridor, which is affected by recurrent droughts. Low crop yields, lack of productive expansion and declining employment opportunities are leading to food insecurity and large numbers of people emigrating.
