Its objective is to reduce the harmful effects of heat stress and Chronic Kidney Disease of Undetermined\u00a0Causes (CKDu) among the sugarcane workforce by standardising work practices.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last few months Adelante Initiative has been working to acquire substantial financial support and now, two years after its inception, it has attracted major funding \u2013 nearly $2 million USD \u2013 to support its work from now until 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The funding comes from the DEG and the BMZ, two German institutions dedicated to sustainable development, which come together via their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.developpp.de\/en\/\">Developpp programme<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-635789685833\" src=\"https:\/\/bonsucro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_2476-2-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"457\" height=\"302\" \/>The financial support from the DEG and the BMZ will help the initiative to continue working to ensure that occupational health, and addressing CKDu specifically, is a priority and can be validated and adapted for other affected sugarcane producing regions, as well as other industries whose workforce is at risk from heat stress, CKDu, and other related occupational illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>San Antonio Mill and LIN are also continuing to invest their own resources into the project and additional support is provided by the other project partners. The CNPA will be essential in ensuring the project grows both within Nicaragua and the region. San Antonio Mill, LIN and the CNPA are all Bonsucro members, and it is through Bonsucro that it is hoped that Adelante\u2019s findings can be disseminated internationally.
