🌍 Two ends of one journey: from Germany to Sokoto and back again.

For Rukayya Mahe, Founder & CEO of Global Agricultural Extension and Rural Services (GAERS), international cooperation is not something that happens only in meetings, emails or project documents.

It is something she experiences in between worlds.

During her recent visit to Nigeria, Rukayya returned to Sokoto to see how the Building Soil Health (BSH) Programme is taking shape on the ground.

She visited the trial plots and demonstration site with her team — seeing, physically, the practices and ideas that had been discussed, shared and tested through months of learning and collaboration.

There is something different about seeing the work growing in the fields.

The soil, the crops, the experiments, the conversations around what is working and what still needs to be improved — all of these make the connection between knowledge and action tangible.

The visit also included a courtesy meeting with the Honourable Commissioner for Agriculture, together with the GAERS team, to acknowledge the support and cooperation of the Sokoto State Government towards the Building Soil Health Programme.

And then there were the quieter moments. Sitting together outside the training space. Listening to the birds. Sharing laughter, stories, challenges and lessons learned after months of working together.

Later the team listened to goodwill messages from partners and collaborators from different parts of the world.

They heard Sokoto being mentioned.
They heard their work being recognised.
They heard the names and stories of people who had contributed from far away.

For a moment, the distance between them disappeared.

What began as connections across countries has become something tangible: people who have never met working together, learning from one another and contributing to challenges they share.

This is what international cooperation can look like when it moves beyond the screen and into the field.

From Germany to Sokoto.
From conversations to growing trials.
From partnerships to shared spaces for learning.

From bamboo to climate resilience 🎋🌱

What happens when local knowledge, bamboo and climate action come together?

At Matutuíne Bamboo Park in Mozambique, teachers, students and local communities are coming together to explore how bamboo and other local materials can be transformed into sustainable infrastructure designed to better withstand flooding and strong winds.

With the support of ClimaClic , this hands-on workshop is turning climate action into practical skills, local capacity and real infrastructure. 🌍🤝

Bamboo. Local knowledge. Climate resilience. Building together.

A big thank you to ClimaClic for supporting this work and helping turn this vision into action. 💚

A significant milestone for Global Agricultural Extension and Rural Services (GAERS):

We are pleased to share highlights from the commissioning of the GAERS Learning Facility, an important step in strengthening our capacity to support farmers, extension workers, students, young people, and other stakeholders through practical learning, innovation, and knowledge exchange.

The commissioning brought together representatives and partners who share our commitment to advancing more sustainable and resilient agricultural systems.

A few highlights from the event included:

•⁠ ⁠The official commissioning of the GAERS Learning Facility
•⁠ ⁠Bringing together stakeholders and partners to reflect on the importance of practical agricultural learning
•⁠ ⁠Sharing GAERS’ vision for strengthening agricultural extension, farmer capacity development, and knowledge exchange
•⁠ ⁠Discussions around opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and future learning activities
•⁠ ⁠Celebrating the people and partnerships that continue to support GAERS’ work

For us, the facility is more than a physical space. It is intended to serve as a hub for learning, collaboration, demonstration, and innovation—connecting knowledge with practical action and creating opportunities for people to learn from one another.

We are grateful to Weltweit e.V. and Rapunzel Foundation, our Indian technical partners and everyone who joined us and contributed to making this milestone possible.

We look forward to putting the facility to work and creating even more opportunities for learning, collaboration, and impact.

Meet the KECA Academy football team

This month, the team engaged in the "Kibaha Environmental Conservation Action (KECA)" stopped the beekeeping and nature restoration activities to join the Division Four League, an amateur football competition.⚽️

These events not only create joyful moments, they also help to connect people and spread KECA’s approach of conserving nature and benefiting from its diversity. Young people were introduced to beekeeping, including its environmental benefits and its potential to create sustainable economic opportunities. The football matches provided a relaxed and lively setting where community members could come together, exchange ideas, and learn more about KECA’s work. At the same time, the activities showed how sports can create a bridge between community engagement, environmental awareness, and new opportunities for young people.🌱

The response was very encouraging. Many people expressed their interest and promised to visit KECA to learn more and explore how they can become involved.🐝

At the heart of KECA's work in Kibaha, Tanzania, sustainable beekeeping is helping connect environmental conservation with community livelihoods.

One recent milestone saw KECA's newly elected Chairman, Mr. Mohamed Salim Sekamba, visit the demonstration apiary in Kwadosa Village. Together with experienced beekeepers, he inspected beehives, harvested honey, and discussed ways to expand sustainable apiculture across the district.

This work is made possible through long-standing collaboration. Over the years, Weltweit e.V. and the Bad Soden Beekeeping Association have supported KECA in strengthening community capacity, establishing beekeeping infrastructure, and promoting sustainable environmental conservation in Kibaha.

Because when communities have the knowledge, tools, and partnerships they need, conservation creates benefits for both people and nature.

🎋With your vote you can help build a promising project for earth and people:

In southern Mozambique, the Matutuíne Bamboo Park is turning degraded land into an opportunity for both environmental recovery and local development. Spanning 16 hectares, the initiative focuses on reforesting former sand extraction sites with sustainably grown bamboo, helping to stabilize the landscape and improve resilience to climate impacts.
Beyond ecological restoration, the project invests in people. Local residents are trained in bamboo construction techniques and the production of eco-friendly charcoal, creating new income streams while promoting sustainable practices. This combined approach has earned the initiative a place as a finalist for the ClimaAward 2026.
By linking land restoration with community empowerment, the Matutuíne Bamboo Park offers a practical and scalable model for disaster risk reduction and long-term economic sustainability in vulnerable coastal areas.

Check out our previous post for a detailed instruction how you can support the project. 🌱
