Zimbabwe Cotton Farmers Sew Path to Prosperity, Diversifying Income and Defying Climate Change
Women cotton farmers in Zimbabwe's Shamva district are finding new ways to boost their incomes by sewing and saving collectively. They are making school uniforms and taking clothing orders to create additional earning opportunities beyond their primary crop, which they refer to as "white gold." This diversification strategy helps them adapt to climate change and secure more stable livelihoods.
