Magda Riang Hepat is a project manager for the Foundation for Social Studies and Development (YPPS) in Indonesia. YPPS are local champions for sustainable farming. It’s never been more needed.

Magda says, “In recent years, we have all seen the alarming effects of climate change taking shape sooner than anyone predicted. Your country had its first drought in decades. But in my village, drought threatens lives and livelihoods every summer. Summers which are growing hotter and more devastating.”

Now Magda’s taking action...

“We teach local women to manage agriculture with environmentally friendly concepts.”

As a result, Magda’s neighbour Mama Paulina now farms climate-resistant sorghum, a resilient grain crop that can grow in hot areas with little rainfall. Growing sorghum means she’s no longer at risk of running out of food.

“From these taught methods, which are developed in gardens and yards, women can produce good quality organic crops that are varied and provide a balanced diet. The program also provided a change in mindset for the community, shifting cultivation from slash-and-burn to using organic garden waste for mulch to restore topsoil after it is destroyed.”

Your donation can support communities adapting to farming methods that protect the environment AND their incomes.

Please act with the community leaders – give now and for a limited time only, get a free book.

In Isiolo County, Kenya, Safia is an activist for climate justice. She’s working with Oxfam’s local partners to bring wells to her village, so that when the next drought comes, her community, livestock and land will be protected from
disaster.

By donating today, you could help Oxfam’s partners around the world not only build the wells, but amplify the voices and campaigns of climate activists who are leading change in their communities.

In exchange, you’ll get a free book packed with 52 tips on how to live sustainably, helping you do your bit for your community.
