Thrilled to see my colleague USAID Global Water Coordinator Nancy J. Eslick announce a new partnership between USAID/Democratic Republic of the Congo & KfW Development Bank last week. This partnership will expand water access in the country as part of the Global Water Strategy. USAID Water 💦🚽🧼

For too many, access to safe and reliable water remains out of reach. This summer, USAID, with GIZ and KfW Development Bank, launched a new partnership with 🇨🇩 to connect more DRC communities and Congolese to sustainable, clean water sources. #WorldWaterWeek

.Feed the Future #AIDI's focus in #Rwanda for the next few growing seasons is helping smallholder farmers get the inputs & innovations they need to fight #hunger now. Glad I was able to see this first-hand during my #AFSF2024 visit

Hunger will not be solved by emergency aid alone. That’s why today USAID announced an additional $40 million to build more resilient food systems—through connecting smallholder farmers to improved crop varieties, efficient water sources, and more—in Africa.

Thank you IKIJUMBA ONE STOP SHOP for sharing your vision and passion for spreading the love for such a highly nutritious and tasty food. So glad we are partnering and enjoyed the visit!
