At Wezesha, we believe in empowering communities to create sustainable livelihoods and achieve lasting food security. We work with women and youth as equal partners—not merely beneficiaries—to build their capacity to identify and invest in livelihood strategies that align with their local context and values.
Our approach emphasizes collaboration with relevant actors to promote sustainable agricultural practices that reduce smallholder farmers’ reliance on external inputs. By doing so, we enhance food security while supporting ecological balance, economic resilience, and community well-being.
How We Do This
Inclusive Participation
We engage women and youth as active decision-makers, ensuring their perspectives and contributions shape livelihood initiatives.
Capacity Building
We provide training and resources for communities to adopt innovative, locally appropriate, and sustainable livelihood strategies.
Sustainable Agriculture
We promote eco-friendly farming practices, such as agroecology, organic farming, and crop diversification, to improve productivity and soil health.
Market Access
We support farmers in accessing local and regional markets, enabling them to sell their produce and improve their incomes.
Collaboration and Partnerships
We partner with agricultural experts, government agencies, and other stakeholders to deliver tailored solutions and strengthen community resilience.
By investing in sustainable livelihoods and food systems, Wezesha empowers communities to thrive, reduce poverty, and secure a brighter, more resilient future.
