Drops of Hope

Drops of Hope follows the inspiring leadership of Mama Chuputu and fellow Malawian farmers as they respond to land degradation and erratic rainfall caused by the climate crisis. Teaming up with the GLFx Lilongwe chapter, they embrace water harvesting, soil restoration and climate-smart agriculture through community learning and demonstration farms. This story captures how knowledge is shared, how resilience is nurtured and how a deep sense of collective ownership is restoring both livelihoods and the land – with every step forward sowing seeds of hope.
