Across Malawi, rural women are leading the fight for climate resilience, protecting seeds, sustaining livelihoods and turning collective knowledge into action.
During our field engagement with the Rural Women’s Assembly in Malawi, under TrustAfrica’s Community-Led Climate Solutions for Inclusive Development (C2SID) project, we saw how women are drawing on indigenous knowledge, local seeds and collective action to respond to climate change.
They represent food sovereignty, nutrition security, livelihoods, cultural knowledge and resilience in the face of a changing climate.
This is what locally led adaptation is about: recognising that communities are not just vulnerable to climate change; they have the knowledge, solutions and agency to shape their own holistic responses.
