· This project is organized by the UN for the Jerusalen community as an effort to provide more supplies for the poor families.

· By recycling used materials, the community had provided their own materials for construction with the subsidies from Volkswagon.

· With subsidies of hydroponics nutrients, the community had sustainably grown various crops of their own.

· Importance of starting hydroponics in Jerusalen community:

(i) There are a large number of poor families in the community which are mainly women that need to take care of their children.

(ii) Disaster that happened recently had destroyed various padi fields which greatly reduced the yields.

(iii) Poor families are unable to get sufficient food supplies and would face food shortages.

· With the introduction of hydroponics, the Jerusalen community had benefited greatly:

(i) Families are able to provide food for their own self with extra surplus.

(ii) Food surplus are sold to supermarkets which earns extra incomes for their families.
