Food Security & Agriculture
Supporting smallholder farmers and building resilient food systems
Addressing Food Insecurity
Despite Zambia's agricultural potential, 5.8 million people are projected to face acute food insecurity in 2024–2025, driven by drought, pests, and economic shocks.
Our food security programs support smallholder farmers with the training, tools, and inputs they need to grow nutritious food and build resilience against climate change.
Through partnerships with the Ministry of Agriculture and local communities, we are helping families move from subsistence to sustainability.

Mary's Harvest
"Before TAF came to our village, we struggled to grow enough food for our family. The rains were unpredictable, and we didn't know how to conserve water or protect our crops."
"Now, after the training in climate-smart agriculture, we have a kitchen garden that feeds our family year-round. We even sell some vegetables at the local market. My children are healthier and I can afford their school fees."
Mary, Smallholder Farmer, Southern Province
