This week, we are in Amuru and Serere districts training Agroecology Ambassadors and selected Farmer Field School (FFS) members on the application of agroecology principles and practices under the Rooted in Diversity (RiD) project.
Equipping model farmers with practical skills in agroecological practices makes them catalysts for farmer-to-farmer learning, helping more communities restore soil health through practices such as composting and accelerating the transition to sustainable, more resilient food systems.

Uganda's new Lower Secondary Curriculum places strong emphasis on competency-based, practical and problem-solving learning. Introducing learners to agroecology aligns perfectly with the curriculumโs focus on applied learning that connects classroom knowledge to real-world challenges, building a generation of informed citizens to champion sustainable agriculture.
@ESAFFUG, with support from @humundi_ong, is doing just that, through school agroecology clubs.

When you integrate livestock and crop farming, it fosters a symbiotic relationship between the two on your farm.
Animal droppings are used as manure, while crop residues serve as animal feeds, strengthening the agroecological principles of recycling & synergy.
@KJuvenalis, a member of the 3rd cohort at our
@agroecology_Sch, explains this in his insightful article.

In Masaka district, central Uganda, small-scale farmers are rewriting the story of "Waste" through rearing red earthworms that convert Kitchen scraps, cow dung and plant residues into nutrient-rich compost.
@julius_osungi, a member of our 2nd @Agroecology_Sch cohort, highlights how these ๐ซ๐๐ง๐ข๐๐๐ช๐ก๐ฉ๐ช๐ง๐ systems are helping farmers to produce organic fertiliser, by turning waste into a valuable farm input, in his insightful piece.

To enable a just transition to agroecology, we need credible, context-specific evidence that strengthens our voice in policy spaces. With the right data, we can better defend certain agroecological initiatives in national development frameworks.
This is what @ESAFFUG is doing in collaboration with scientists and academic institutions, building an evidence-based research framework to measure the scope of agroecological transition under the #ECOTOPIA programme.

I hosted last year's edition as an MC, honestly these are the most educative competitions I've ever seen at a school level, so much to learn and win. @ESAFFUG you are doing such an incredible job.
Uganda imports large volumes of agrochemicals, yet 59% of the 41 registered for use are classified as highly hazardous by the US EPA and banned in the EU.
An insightful article in @DailyMonitor highlights that these chemicals pose serious risks to farmers, consumers, and the environment. Urgent policy action is needed to phase out such toxic substances and promote safer agricultural practices.

Earlier today, our National Coordinator @NMugimba led the @ESAFFUganda team in signing an MoU with the Uganda Parliamentary Alliance on Food and Nutrition Security (UPA-FNS).
This partnership formalizes our collaboration to strengthen food and nutrition security in Uganda by connecting small-scale farmers, especially women, youth, and marginalized groups with Parliament and the different parliamentary processes.
Together, we will engage in advocacy for nutrition-sensitive policies, small scale farmersโParliament dialogue, research, policy reviews, joint fundraising and capacity-building on agroecology, climate resilience, and sustainable diets.

Land service delivery in Mityana and Gomba districts continues to be undermined by corruption, inefficiencies, weak institutional capacity, poor information flow, and inadequate protection for vulnerable groups leading to tenure insecurity and social injustice.
Through strengthening institutions, empowering communities and leveraging digital land administration systems, transparency and accountability can be improved while securing land rights especially for women.

โIn the past two years, we have experienced unpredictable weather changes. Last season, there was so much heat that our crops dried up in the gardens. We couldnโt harvest anything, and the whole village suffered from hunger. Many of us were even unable to send our children to school. When there is no food or income at home, tensions rise, and women often face blame and violence for things beyond our control. Climate change is worsening not just hunger, but also gender-based violence in our communities.โ - Owechi Stella, Small-Scale Farmer, Nebbi

@SpireJim Farmer using an empty chemical container as a porridge flask highlights urgent risk. Highly Hazardous Pesticides are mutagenic, carcinogenic, reproductive toxicants, endocrine disruptors, toxic to pollinators & aquatic life. MAAIF must act swiftly to safeguard health & env't.
