Welcome to your latest update!
In the countries where we work across Southern and Eastern Africa, the ongoing effects of the pandemic and climate crisis are being severely exacerbated by rocketing rates of inflation, and sharply rising food, energy and fertiliser prices.
In this newsletter, our Africa Director, Oswald – who recently visited eight of our partners in Tanzania and Uganda – explores what the surging cost of living means for the communities we work with, and outlines what we can do to support them at such a challenging time.
The newsletter also features updates from several of our partners, an outline of our community banking initiative, the Village Investors Programme (VIP), and the impact of the VIP on Ndilindiyani, an entrepreneur and business owner from the Ntcheu District in southern Malawi, where she lives with her three children.
Click through the newsletter to learn more about the impact of your incredible support. We recommend viewing in full screen!
