🌍As #climate talks unfold, Africa faces a threat from #GreenGrabs. #COP29 is set to greenlight a new wave of carbon offsets. 🎥@suechomba explains how this could displace farmers from their land. Land is vital for community #foodsecurity, culture, & #nature—let’s protect it!

She was ahead of her time! Debt burden caused by corruption in government, unfair tax regimes by IMF & other MDBs are chocking Africa, stealing the future of our youth. Democracy enshrined in our constitution to check these excesses must be respected. #RejectFinanceBill2024.

What a humbling recognition to be on @BBC100women list of 2023! A dedication to all smallholder farmers in Africa who have shaped my journey. Particularly women such as my mother, who never give up in the face of insurmountable climate related challenges. bbc.co.uk/news/resources…
