What the World Can Learn from Rural Communities
Rural communities in Uganda offer powerful lessons in resilience, sustainability, and collective progress. On World Rural Development Day, we honour their innovation and the vital role they play in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. From clean water access to community-based agricultural programs like Cents for Seeds, rural solutions are driving long-term change. It's time the world recognised rural wisdom as essential to building a more just and equitable future.

Watch their story and hear how this single well rewrote their future, and how you can help drill the next one.
