As the world gears up for the @FIFAWorldCup 2026, young people are reminding us what sport is really about. ⚽is not just a game, but the joy, friendships, and communities that make it powerful.
A new team has entered the game. This is #OwnYourGame.

As we continue commemorating the #WED2026, we reaffirm that the future of our planet is built by the strength of our local communities. We know that when we empower women and youth on the frontlines of climate change, we don't just create solutions; we grow lasting resilience.

On Tuesday, 29 April 2026, @RCCA_Youth was glad to host a delegation from the World Food Programme (WFP), Zimbabwe, and the Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD) at the RCCA Nursery Site. A discussion with young people brought together 30 participants from Tongogara Refugee Settlement. The engagement focused on youth innovation and sustainable, resilient initiatives.

RCCA had the opportunity to present the need to scale up our nursery production of tree and vegetable seedlings. Our project, which needs to be accelerated, fosters climate resilience through tree planting and horticultural production, promoting climate-smart agriculture to produce vegetables at scale for community needs. It has the capacity to empower youth, support environmental conservation, and help address the impacts of climate change in our community.

I always thought World Food Programme was only about food, many people think so too. But it’s much more than that. It was inspiring to learn about their work empowering young people and strengthening communities.
