Core programmes
What we do
Six interwoven programmes, one shared mission.
Every activity feeds the next — manure becomes fertiliser, forests shelter our bees, and skills become livelihoods. This is integrated, demand-driven development.
Environmental Protection
A natural tree nursery that has raised over 200,000 seedlings, plus our “Save the Planet” tree-planting campaigns and watershed protection work.
ICT for Rural Development
Solar-powered computer training for women and youths — from digital record keeping to online marketing of farm produce, running year-round.
Livestock
Pig fattening, sheep rearing and poultry. A layer farm supplies fresh eggs locally while animal manure feeds our organic farm inputs.
Natural Medicine
In partnership with ANAMED International (Germany), we train communities in cultivating, processing and safely using tropical medicinal plants.
Agroecology
Farmer-led workshops on organic fermented fertilisers and pesticides using local resources — cow dung, chili, garlic, rice bran and indigenous microorganisms.
From the founder
Turning a thriving business into a thriving community.
Founder and Coordinator Mr. Litika Boniface closed a successful trading enterprise to dedicate himself to fighting rural poverty — one of the root causes of the lack of formal and non-formal education in his community.
With hard work, determination and goodwill from kind-hearted people around the globe, RTC has grown into one of the largest community-owned and community-run projects in the region.
“I never stopped thinking of what I could do to remedy the situation of poverty in my community.”
— Mr. Litika Boniface, Founder & Coordinator
