What's Happening at WMI?
Rolland Zenda, WMI Scholar of engineering from Zimbabwe, is pictured here plowing a field and later weeding crops for an elderly subsistence farmer who is the sole provider for her three grandchildren. “Mbuya Maponga is an elderly woman who lives by herself but she is no longer able to work for too long, so I was weeding her field so as to remove the burden on her shoulders.”
This is beautiful. Keep up the good work!
Such a heart, be blessed Rolland
May Allah grant you more strength

In his 2017 application to WMI Sujan Gautam said he wanted to use his degree in agriculture to build the capacity of local farmers. Now as a graduate scholar, Sujan is using a WMI Community Development grant to train 30 marginalized farmers in commercial farming practices with high-yielding varieties of vegetables seeds to increase cultivation and output.
Congratulations 🎊 to Sujan. He is definitely a role model and mentor. I'm motivated by this.
I have the same ideas with them, one of my essays mention about sustaiable of agriculture development and food security for rural area in my village.
Great 👍
Porfirio Temoxtle Tehuintle, second from the left, worked with members of his community in Veracruz, Mexico, to cultivate a new kind of avocado created from grafting a Creole avocado with the more familiar Hass avocado. The activity provided participants with the opportunity to learn about the process of grafting, and they were able to take the new species of avocado to their farms to enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Great
Kudos to Porfirio
Victor Mkandawire paired educational programming and a tree-planting activity to raise awareness around environmental conservation and reforestation in Malawi, and its role in mitigating climate change. Together with community members they planted 1100 trees on the grounds of two secondary schools.
Kudos to Victor. Planting trees 🎄 is highly imperative in environmental sustainability.
WMI Scholar Larry Maredza volunteered installing solar panels in remote areas of Zimbabwe and providing some basic education on the function and benefit of solar energy.

“‘Period poverty’ is associated with several negative outcomes including desperation on the part of some menstruators, the level of which is emphasized by reports stating that some girls in Kenya, Uganda, Ghana and Zimbabwe trade or have traded sex for menstrual hygiene management products.” An excerpt from WMI Scholar Esther Ajari’s recent paper published in the European Journal of Environment and Public Health. Take a look. bit.ly/2UMHM
