Young, Radical, and Rooted: The Zambian farmers turning challenges into opportunities
As we reflect on International Youth Day 2024, it is befitting to reflect on the extraordinary contributions by young people who are turning the tide on climate change and agricultural challenges.
This year’s theme, From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development, resonates profoundly with the stories of two inspiring Zambian farmers—Abel Hangoma and Elizabeth Maanda Sianga—whose innovative approaches are transforming the agricultural landscape in Zambia and beyond. Their success stories are integral to the CGIAR Ukama Ustawi’s Learning Alliance, which champions the power of knowledge sharing to create real, on-the-ground impact.
Abel Hangoma, the “Radical Farmer.”
