The Reclaim Sustainability program is giving back power to those who do most of the work — Farmers, through Fair Value Distribution

TrustAfrica and partners is changing the narrative

The formation and growth of Women in Tea Value Chain Association (WiTEVA) has largely happened with the express desire & urgency to bring meaningful systemic change in gender disparities, following the @BBCWorld expose of the rampant GBV in the Kenya tea sector. #16Days

[TrustAfrica @TrustAfrica]

TrustAfrica held a transformational leadership training from Dec 2-5 in Kericho, Kenya, empowering women in the tea value chain under the Reclaim Sustainability! Programme.
This timely initiative aligns with the 16 Days of Activism, addressing GBV & advocating for gender equality in the tea sector.

It’s outrageous that the world’s poorest, most climate-vulnerable nations are paying twice as much in debt as they receive for fighting the climate crisis 💸🌍. This growing imbalance is a betrayal of those most in need and will only deepen the crisis 🌱. We must do better!

[AfCFTA Secretariat Official @AfCFTA]

H.E. Wamkele Mene, Secretary General of the AfCFTA Secretariat, met with David Beer, CEO of TradeMark Africa, on the margins of the Biashara Afrika 2024. During the productive discussions, they explored the critical role of TradeMark Africa in removing trade barriers across the continent, reinforcing a shared commitment to the success of the AfCFTA for businesses. TradeMark Africa’s active participation at the Forum was highlighted, as they engaged with businesses harnessing AfCFTA's potential to boost cross-border trade. This meeting marked an excellent opportunity for collaboration and progress.

"Rent-seeking behavior acts as a market signal, with the corruption reported in the news reflecting the current price of rent-seeking in the economy. If this issue is not addressed, the rent-seeking premium will continue to rise each year."
