The Feed the Future Alliance for Resilient Coffee (ARC) project works to address the effects of climate change on smallholder coffee growing families across the globe. In Uganda, the active ARC consortium members have combined their expertise to develop tools and practices that small-scale coffee farmers can take up in order to increase their resilience to climate change. Together we are united by the importance of addressing the threat that climate change poses to the global coffee supply chain and the urgency of the private sector to get involved.
Watch, to learn more about the ARC project activities in Uganda!
This #COVID19 crisis shows us the importance of investments into smallholder coffee farmers livelihood situation.
HRNS works in rural farming communities that often lack proper access to healthcare, information and sanitation materials. Farmers are also in great need of receiving technical assistance to ensure crop cycles and financial stability, making them specifically vulnerable during this time.
Together, and as a global team, our staff remains active and committed to smallholder farming families around the world. Our support continues as we find new channels, acquire corresponding knowledge on technology and remote training formats to reach farmers as efficiently as possible.
Thank you to everyone who joined us today for our second webinar “Exploring gender inclusion within farming families and organizations”, part of our miniseries on Innovation in Coffee Communities.

Thanks to the ongoing support and collaboration with Feed the Future Alliance for Resilient Coffee, and local partners Instituto Hondureño del Café and Plan Trifinio, our regional office distributed 9,500 face masks, hand hygiene products, and personal protective equipment to supply 4 Health Centers and 40 farmer organizations we work with in the Trifinio Region of Honduras.
These safety kits will provide more than 1,000 smallholder farming families with the necessary safety equipment to avoid being infected with COVID19!
The role of information in smallholder coffee farming communities became increasingly important in this COVID-19 crisis. In our joint program TeamUp Uganda with Deutsche Stiftung Weltbevölkerung - DSW Siemens Stiftung Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung (BMZ) the field activities now use the power of radio to keep project work going.

Climate change represents the biggest challenge to the future of humanity and affects millions of smallholder coffee farmers around the world. It threatens the future of coffee farmers, their families, and their communities whose livelihood is deeply intertwined with coffee production.
Today on Earth Day, we don’t only recognize the challenges, but support the collaborative climate action taking place around the world so we can continue to tackle our current climate crisis and restore our planet.
Let us come together, now, more than ever, to make our planet greener and healthier. Me might be small, but our impact is colossal. Happy Earth Day!
