It has been six months since the powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck central Myanmar on 28 March 2025.The devastating quake caused widespread damage to homes, schools, health centres, and public infrastructure across Mandalay and Sagaing regions. It has worsened an already dire humanitarian situation, with nearly 20 million people nationwide in need of assistance due to prolonged conflict, recurring natural disasters, and economic collapse. Among them are more than 3.5 million people displaced from their homes, further deepening the crisis. From Day 1, we acted swiftly—restoring access to clean water and sanitation to prevent disease outbreaks, providing food and cash assistance to address food insecurity and urgent needs, offering protection services including mental health and psychosocial support for women and children, delivering shelter assistance to displaced families, and supporting livelihood recovery through VisionFund.

For years, Alex Alinga, a farmer from Apenaony village in Uganda’s Kole District, struggled with declining crop yields and poor health due to deforestation and harmful farming practices. Like many in his community, he unknowingly contributed to environmental degradation by cutting down indigenous trees, which led to soil infertility, harsh microclimates, and smoke-related health issues. In August 2024, World Vision introduced Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR), a sustainable method of restoring tree cover and soil health. Through training, Alex learned to protect tree stumps, nurture regrowth, and appreciate the medicinal and ecological value of indigenous species.
