❌ We can’t overcome the world's challenges alone. ✊ We need to be on this journey together. This week’s Global #RefugeeForum needs everyone involved to answer the challenge. Thank you to our wonderful Goodwill Ambassadors, some refugees themselves, for your solidarity.

Our quest to transform self reliance interventions at TRS took us to Chivhu Irrigation scheme where the Vision 30 Accelerator model is being implemented. Farmers utilising 120ha are shareholders in the enterprise. It's an eye opener. We explored if the model can be replicated.

We facilitated market linkages between Seedco and refugees for a secure value chain. We are grateful to Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration for funding that has made the development of an additional 25ha bringing the total of irrigation driven livelihoods projects to 175ha courtesy of the government.
