Happening Now: We are hosting a training for journalists on reporting on Land Rights and Agroecology at Esella Country Hotel in Kampala. In Uganda, where shrinking soils, land grabs, and erratic rains threaten to push the countryโ€™s food systems to the brink, training journalists to report on land rights is not just about storytelling. It is about survival. A well-trained press can unravel the tangled web between secure land rights and food sovereignty, exposing injustices that choke small-scale farmers, while highlighting agroecology as the lifeline for Ugandaโ€™s fragile food systems. When journalists learn to frame land not merely as property but as the heartbeat of Agroecology and transforming communities, they engage in public debate, hold power to account, and rally society behind farming that restores both dignity and soil health. #FundAgroecology #LandRightsSupportCenter @FundAgroecology @oxfaminuganda

In venture building, wellness is important . The founderโ€™s journey is a rollercoaster pressure, failure, even heartbreak. As @ndwiga_ruth saysโ€œIf youโ€™re not failing enough, youโ€™re not learning.โ€ Ventures need both resilient models minds. Prioritize your mental well-being.

Small-scale farmers are vital to food security and nutrition, yet they often go hungry themselves. #IFADGoverningCouncil shines a light on the first mile and the people that are part of it. For a better future, #InvestInRuralPeople.
