Project Eden offers a unique approach to economic development. Its goal is to turn a nation around, one community at a time. It is based on the belief that efficient businesses and markets are the driver for sustainable economic development. And when combined with spiritual renewal of the people and the meeting of basic human and environmental needs, entire villages can be turned around in a matter of years and can continue to thrive free from dependence on aid.
