🌿 A Chance Encounter: Women for Mangroves Initiative by OPSA 🌿 A few days back, I came across something truly inspiring that I can’t stop thinking about—What a coincidence it was that I stumbled upon the incredible Women for Mangroves initiative by OPSA (Odisha Professional Social Activists). As I learned more about their work, I couldn’t help but marvel at the power of community and determination. This initiative, rooted in the heart of villages near the Devi River mouth, is not just about saving mangroves but also about empowering vulnerable women in the region. Mangroves, as we know, are nature's protectors—shielding us from cyclones, preventing soil erosion, and supporting countless species. Sadly, these ecosystems have suffered immense damage over the years. That’s where the women from these villages stepped in, joining hands with OPSA to reverse the destruction. Through this initiative: 🌱 They are restoring mangrove ecosystems, planting saplings, and nurturing them to thrive. 👩🌾 They are becoming community leaders, spreading awareness about the importance of mangroves. 💪 Most importantly, they are creating livelihood opportunities, uplifting not just their families but entire communities. Hearing their stories of courage and resilience reminded me that when women come together for a cause, the impact is profound. This isn’t just about mangroves—it’s about preserving the environment while empowering humanity. Let’s celebrate and support initiatives like these, which show that change starts small but can ripple into something transformative. 🌊💚 Here’s to the women of OPSA who are sowing the seeds of hope—for the planet and for future generations. #WomenForMangroves #Sustainability #Empowerment #MangroveRestoration

#Agbility Empowering Farmers with Disabilities and Women in Agriculture. Farmers with disabilities face significant obstacles, including limited access to adaptive tools and technologies, societal stigma, and lack of awareness. To address these challenges, a comprehensive approach is necessary, encompassing adaptive equipment, specialized training, and inclusive policies. By promoting awareness and acceptance, we can create a more inclusive agricultural community. Through initiatives like WOFAGRIC and Gold in the Soil Awards, the foundation has empowered women farmers, farmers with disabilities, and women in the agricultural value chain for five years. These programs provide a platform for showcasing talents, skills, and innovations, and offer leadership training, skills development, and mentorship. #Agricissexy #Agbility #Inclusiveagriculture

How Children Learned Focus from a Growing Tree – Without Ever Being Told As a parent, I’ve always wondered how to teach the value of focus to children without constantly reminding them. Recently, we spent time observing a tree in our garden, and I shared its story—how it grows steadily, taking in water, sunlight, and nutrients, no matter the season or challenge. The tree never rushes, but it never stops either. Slowly, patiently, it becomes stronger. What amazed me was how the children took this lesson to heart. They didn’t need to be told to focus anymore; they learned by watching the tree. Since then, I’ve noticed a shift in how they approach their own tasks—patiently, with persistence. At Tulips & Daffodils , this is what we aim to achieve through our workshops. We use nature and chemical-free soil practices to help children cultivate patience, focus, and a deeper connection with their environment—lessons that stay with them for life. #NaturalFocus #ParentingThroughNature #LifeLessonsFromNature #ChemicalFreeSoil #GardeningWithKids #TulipsAndDaffodils #SustainableLiving #GardeningWorkshops #EcoFriendlyParenting #PatienceAndPersistence #wedochallenge #wedo Visionary Women Circle WEDO - Women Entrepreneurship Development Organisation

Certification is so important.

Powerful reflections on how Mexico’s Indigenous women in the state of Oaxaca are navigating the considerable challenges of climate change, water scarcity, and empowerment and equality in a traditionally male-dominated culture. These women stand as examples of resilience – of learning and implementing what it takes to adapt to a changing climate and to recalibrate social norms. This means implementing water management strategies and using water tanks to withstand droughts. This means reverting to ancestral irrigation practices and growing medicinal plants and other crops that are drought-resilient. And this means turning to sustainable farming and moving up the value chain to animal breeding to equip these women with the means to provide for themselves and their families without having to rely on men. Their path to self-sufficiency and to making decisions for their economic futures is boosting gender equality and creating safe places for women. While we know that women are most vulnerable to climate change, the Oaxaca community demonstrates ways of minimizing those vulnerabilities and maximizing opportunities instead. https://lnkd.in/eGATVU3x

🌾 Who Should Inherit the Farm? 🌾 For centuries, the family farm has been passed down almost exclusively to sons. But what about the daughters who work just as hard—or harder—to ensure its success? In our latest blog, we take a deep dive into the history of farm inheritance. From European feudal traditions to Indigenous matrilineal systems, we uncover the roots of these practices and discuss how they’ve shaped modern agriculture. 💬 Here’s a thought: Should inheritance be based on skill and passion rather than tradition? Let’s rethink who gets the keys to the tractor. 👉 Read the full article thru the linkin.bio! 💡 Your turn: What do YOU think about farm inheritance? Should tradition or talent lead the way?
