Also in Switzerland many people live in poverty and have debt. And once affected, it is difficult to get out of this situation. It is therefore particularly important to avoid debt in good time or to reduce it again quickly. A great tool for this is the app BudgetCH from the Dachverband Budgetberatung Schweiz. It can be used to control the spending more easily and to create a clearly arranged budget. BudgetCH has been actively used for years and has become an important tool for budgeting in private households.

Pragya helps small-scale farmers in remote mountain villages to establish a sustainable livelihood. Due to the extreme seclusion of the villages and the difficult weather conditions in the Himalayas, the people there live in poverty and are marginalized in society. Pragya brings development and progress to the regions and therefore reduces poverty permanently. New cultivation methods secure the harvest and open up new markets with medicinal and aromatic plants.
