FMNR has improved my soil, increased my crop yields, and given my family a healthier environment
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.

From Guns to Ploughshares: What Mozambique Teaches Us About Resilience
Matthew Pickard, Regional Director for World Vision Southern Africa, reflects on Mozambique’s powerful example of post-conflict recovery and resilience. Drawing from personal experience in Niassa Province after the civil war, he emphasises that peace is not solely the product of political agreements—it is built and sustained by communities. Yet, Mozambique’s peace remains fragile. In Cabo Delgado, ongoing insurgency has displaced over 50,000 people since early 2024.
He reaffirms that Mozambique’s story underscores a critical development truth: sustainable peace is people-powered. When local leadership, civil society, and governments collaborate, transformation is not only possible—it’s inevitable.
