Simon planted his #coffee seedlings in northern #Uganda at the beginning of 2012. What a great income generating investment it was. He has now paid for his wife to start a tailoring business and has many more plans.

Coffee harvesting time in northern Uganda. It is more than ten years since we planted the coffee seeds and the coffee is doing so well.

In this experiment Dr Rob Thompson of @UniRdg_Met shows just how long it takes water to soak into parched ground, illustrating why heavy rainfall after a #drought can be dangerous and might lead to flashfloods.

1 year on we sadly remember those killed during the unrest on 18 & 19 Nov 2020. We continue to ask the Govt of Uganda to fulfil its commitment to fully & transparently investigate what happened, bringing those responsible to account, affording justice to those who lost loved ones

This is Nighty and the 10 children she cares for. In the white bag is maize grown by farmers supported by Seeds for Development. This will feed her family for about 5 days. Without it they would be very hungry.

We hear a lot about increasing teenage pregnancy and food insecurity from people we support in northern #Uganda. This excellent interview by @danshamblin with @UNICEFUganda Representative @Munir_Safieldin talks about this and the impact of #COVID19 on children across #Uganda.

"Coffee is the 2nd most traded commodity in the world after oil. My appeal to Ugandans is take coffee seriously. When you see a coffee leaf, flower, cherry...it's money. We are seated on gold unfortunately we have not embraced coffee as a business," Apollo #Coffeetalk @nxtradioug
