Working with communities and the land in Zimbabwe

The Zimbabwe Women’s Bureau is a not-for-profit organisation based in Harare, Zimbabwe, that provides training to rural women farmers in conservation agricultural practices, business entrepreneurship, and livelihood support. It also provides women with financial and material support to get them started in their businesses. Currently, the team at Zimbabwe Women’s Bureau are training 36 women farmers in agroecology, which includes farming practices such as crop rotation, composting, and mulching. The trainings have also helped the women to claim their rights to land resources. Supporting landscape restoration and rewilding activities for the benefit of both people and wildlife in Southern Africa forms part of our funding efforts. We do this in ways that respect and protect people’s rights to and interests in natural resources. Our partners working in this area seek to: improve biodiversity, water, and soil conservation; mitigate climate change; diversify community livelihoods; and create economically resilient farming communities. Our partners listen to farmers when they share their local knowledge, as they are the ones who know best their own land. This work falls under the Regenerative Landscapes Sub-programme of our Environment Programme, which envisions a world in which degraded landscapes and ecosystems are restored for the benefit of both people and wildlife.
