    • Asma Begum (37) and her husband Abdul with their three daughters Lamia (18), Sadia (16) and Maria (5) and their grandmother Kulsum Begum (72) started CRAAIN in 2020. Asma Begum started as a lead farmer, received training and seeds. Before, she did agri activities but wasn’t very successful. She had received one ring composter from the local gov but no training on how to use it. As a lead farmer, she has supported 400 households in this area. She used to rely on her husband but is now totally reliable.

          How to feed a country ravaged by conflict

          For too many years, people living in the Central African Republic have existed under the shadow of conflict. Many people live life day-to-day, unable to predict what will happen in the coming weeks.

In Gitega, more than 2,000 people have benefited from the community resilience programme. Photo Darren Vaughan

          How Concern and UK aid is fighting global hunger

          Burundi in East Africa is one of the world’s poorest countries. In the last two years a lack of resources has rocketed food prices causing a food security crisis.
          Edmond (3) is severely malnourished. He lives with his parents Jean-Marie Mbonimpa (30) and Jeannette Nzobamwita (26) and brother Pacifique (5) and 10-month-old sister Yves in a small banana-leaf-covered house in Marembo, Gisenyi, Kirundo.
