Voice 2: Small projects like these are called, 'microprojects'. Telefood has helped set up over one thousand microprojects around the world. Many of the projects are aimed at women. Supporting women is one of TeleFood's major aims. The group says that in far out, poor, areas, women are the main providers of food. If women have money, they will use much of it to buy food for their families. Meet some more of the women Telefood has supported.
声音2:这些小型项目名为“微型项目”。“电视粮食集资”活动在世界各地帮助设立了1000余个微型项目。许多项目以女性作为目标群体。为女性提供支持是“电视粮食集资”活动的主要目标之一。该组织表示,在偏远的贫困地区,女性是食物的主要提供者。如果女性有钱,她们会用大部分钱来购买家庭所需的食物。下面来认识几名得到“电视粮食集资”活动支持的女性。
Voice 1: Edit works in her local market. She is one of a group of women who sell fish in Burkina Faso, West Africa. It can get very hot in Edit's hometown of Ouagadougou. During the dry season, temperatures reach up to forty or fifty degrees. The heat makes conditions difficult for Edit and the other fish sellers. They struggle to keep their fish fresh. But if it is not fresh, people do not want to buy it. So the women have to sell their fish at reduced prices. Then they do not have a good amount of money to take home to their families. However, now their situation has improved. Telefood gave money to the women in Ouagadougou to buy some ice boxes, and it provided freezers. Edit and her friends can now freeze their fish, and carry it in these boxes. This means people can buy the freshest fish possible. And fewer fish are left as waste at the end of the day.
声音1:伊迪特在地方市场工作。她和一群女性一起在西非国家布基纳法索卖鱼。伊迪特的家乡瓦加杜古非常热。旱季气温高达40或50度。炎热天气令伊迪特和其他鱼贩的情况变得愈加困难。她们努力保持鱼的新鲜度。而如果鱼不再新鲜,人们就不想买了。所以一些女性不得不低价将鱼卖出去。这样一来她们就无法赚太多钱,无法带太多钱回家支持家人。但是,现在她们的情况已经得到了改善。“电视粮食集资”活动为瓦加杜古的这些女性提供资金,供她们购买冰盒,同时还为她们提供冰柜。伊迪特和朋友现在可以将鱼冷冻起来,还可以把鱼放在冰盒里随身携带。这意味着人们可以买到新鲜的鱼。最终剩下被当作废物的鱼也会越来越少。
