When she was pregnant with her fourth child, the family was often forced to drink water from a contaminated spring, with clean water almost 90 minutes’ trek away.
Now, with training and vegetable seeds from the Innovative Climate-Smart Livelihood Enhancement for Resilience Building Project (CLEAR) – supported by Caritas with the Australian NGO Cooperation Program (ANCP) – she’s able to grow a variety of crops and put food on the table.
She’s also gained valuable business management skills and joined a women’s savings group, giving her access to new income streams to build food security for her family.
