ADAPTATION FINANCE SHOULD BUILD RESILIENCE, NOT DEBT. Communities bearing the greatest climate impacts should not be pushed into further debt to finance their adaptation needs. During our Just Transition for Adaptation webinar, our Project Associate, Fredrick Otieno Awino, highlighted the importance of grant-based climate finance that responds to community needs without deepening existing inequalities.

Justice for the oil affected communities in Uganda is non-negotiable! We won’t get tired to seek justice and our voices should be heard and valued. We are now the future and the future is us ,so listen to us . Oil affected communities say.

I believe that every individual has the power to create environmental change. I do not have to wait for a government, organization, or international institution to act before I can make a difference. @ATEIUg @yecaug @BismacAmumpaire @geraldbarekye @missclimate_ug @min_waterUg

Young farmers asked East Africa a fair question: why should a jar of honey need a costly certificate before it can reach a new market? 🍯 Yesterday, youth sat face to face with members of the East African Legislative Assembly to talk about food systems, investment, certification, cross-border trade, and agroecology 🌱 CEFROHT was in the room and brought the farm to the table: our learning centres, the EAC Agroecology Bill, farmer-managed seed, and the danger of highly hazardous pesticides ⚖️ The lawmakers’ reply? We’re in this together 🤝 #EACAgroecologyBill #RightToFood
