Climate Action Must Prioritise Women Farmers 🌱

At Lugarawa Youth Foundation, we strongly support the recognition of women farmers as key leaders in climate action. Across Eastern Africa, women play a critical role in food production, environmental conservation, and building resilient communities despite facing the greatest impacts of climate change.

As temperatures continue to rise globally, it is essential that climate solutions include and empower women farmers through access to education, climate-smart agriculture, financial resources, and leadership opportunities. Investing in women is investing in sustainable development, food security, and stronger communities.

We encourage our partners, supporters, youth, and community members to read and share this important message on the role of women in climate action. Together, we can promote gender equality, environmental sustainability, and climate resilience for future generations.

Farm Africa believes climate action needs to prioritise women. Not just because it’s fair, but because it works.

On 8th February 1965 marks the birthday of Mr. Romanus Aidan Mgimba, Director of Lugarawa Youth Foundation. In celebration of this special occasion, a tree-planting initiative focusing on water-conserving trees was officially launched on Saturday, 7th February 2026, in Lihangano Street, Peramiho B Village. The launch ceremony was officiated by the Lihangano Street Chairperson, Mr. Edward Komba.

This event highlights the importance of tree planting in protecting water sources, improving the environment, and promoting sustainable development in our community. Following the example and encouragement of Her Excellency President Samia Suluhu Hassan, who has emphasized the significance of planting trees even during her own birthday celebrations, this initiative reflects a strong commitment to environmental conservation and community responsibility. Tree planting not only safeguards natural resources but also ensures a healthier and greener future for the next generations.
