Last week we attended the NGO mixer, a networking session set up by Magnolia Foundry in Block 8 industrial Gaborone.

YUN joined a diverse group of community leaders, nonprofit representatives, and social entrepreneurs who gathered to exchange ideas and explore collaborative opportunities. The event fostered lively discussions around sustainable development, local impact projects, and creative partnerships, with Magnolia’s vibrant space providing an atmosphere that encouraged networking and cross-sector dialogue.

Our participation highlighted the mixer’s role as a bridge between grassroots initiatives and broader organizational strategies, making it a meaningful platform for building connections and strengthening community-driven efforts. We were very honored to have been invited to attend.

Towards Land Degradation Neutrality in Tutume

We are proud to share our ongoing efforts in integrating lablab with millet—a resilient partnership that restores soil fertility, improves yields, and strengthens food security. By combining these crops, we are not only nourishing communities but also healing the land, step by step.

Together, we can build a future where productivity and sustainability walk hand in hand.

We are excited to share our ongoing tree planting initiative in Tutume, in collaboration with the local primary school. Together with learners, teachers, and community members, we are nurturing a greener future: one seedling at a time!!!

This campaign is rooted in the belief that true change begins at the grassroots. By involving our children and community directly, we ensure that environmental stewardship becomes part of our daily lives and values.

Every tree planted today is not only a promise of shade, clean air, and sustainability for tomorrow. it is also a direct expression of our mandate at Youth Unlimited Network: driving youth-centered transformation through climate action, community-led adaptation, and intergenerational knowledge sharing.

We’re excited to share that the Farmer Field School (FFS) in Tutume is taking a big step forward in both livelihood improvement and land restoration.

It is important to note that the Department of Forestry supplies seedlings that are:
- 75% forest/wild species (for reforestation and ecological balance)
- 25% commercial species (fruit trees & other income-generating trees)

Through FFS participation, our community will focus on selling the commercial seedlings. This means:
- Boosting household incomes
- Supporting land restoration efforts
- Strengthening community collaboration

All seedlings will be nurtured at the local community woodlot/plantation, ensuring sustainability and shared responsibility.

What makes this initiative even more special is that our youth joined with their families, encouraging intergenerational knowledge-sharing and community stewardship towards restoring the land. Together, we are planting not just trees, but values of care, responsibility, and hope for future generations.

🌸 Happy Women’s Day from YUN! 🌸

Yesterday we celebrated the strength, resilience and brilliance of women everywhere. But let’s be clear, every day should be Women’s Day. Because women are not just the backbone of our families, communities and workplaces; they are the heartbeat of progress and change.

At YUN, we honor the women who inspire us, challenge us and lead us forward. Let’s continue to create spaces where women’s voices are heard, their contributions valued, and their dreams supported; not just today, but every single day.

💜 Here’s to women: yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Youth Voices in Action – EMPOWER+ Focus Group Discussion

Yesterday we took part in a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) under the EMPOWER+ Erasmus+ Capacity Building Project, which is working to establish Rural Youth Parliaments in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The session brought young stakeholders together to share ideas on how rural youth can:
- Shape decision-making in their communities
- Influence youth-friendly policies
- Lead development initiatives that matter to them

The FGD was an important step towards building strong, inclusive platforms where youth voices are heard and acted upon.

We are excited to continue this journey with Joint Minds Consult and ensure that young people, especially from rural areas are at the center of governance and community development.

Green value chains in tutume

Today, YUN visited local sites where young people are harnessing the power of bee keeping to restore biodiversity and strengthen green value chains.

Bees are more than honey producers—they are nature’s frontline workers in pollination, climate resilience, and land restoration. By investing in sustainable practices like bee keeping, our youth are not only creating livelihoods but also healing the land, protecting ecosystems and building community resilience against climate change.

This initiative shows how green value chains can transform challenges into opportunities—linking environmental stewardship with economic empowerment. Together, we are proving that climate action starts at the grassroots, and that restoring our land means restoring hope for future generations. 💪

As we bid farewell to 2025, we celebrate the dedication, resilience, and hard work of our farmers and communities throughout the year. Your commitment to sustainable agriculture, conservation, and community development has been truly inspiring.

We are thrilled to share that, through the Lemang Dijo Initiative, our farmers in Kalakamati have been awarded beehive boxes and protective clothing to support the establishment of beehive fences, a vital step towards mitigating human-wildlife conflicts while promoting environmental sustainability.

As we step into 2026, we look forward to building on these achievements and creating even greater opportunities for our farmers, our communities, and our environment. Here’s to a year of growth, collaboration, and shared success! 🌱🐝

We are proud to announce that YUN has successfully facilitated the installation of an outdoor gym generously donated by Time Projects!

This gym is now a gift to the Tlokweng community, with custodianship entrusted to Lekgotlana la Baagi ba Mafitlhakgosi – Mafatshwa and Cheers Social Club.

Why this matters:
- Promotes good health through exercise and helps fight non-communicable diseases (NCDs)
- Provides a safe and productive space to occupy the youth’s time positively
- Creates a platform for community bonding, empowerment, and wellness

This is more than just equipment—it’s a step towards a healthier, stronger, and more united Tlokweng.

We celebrate this milestone with gratitude to our partners and excitement for the impact it will bring. Together, we are building communities that thrive!
