In southern Angola’s Banda Chibia, drought once forced residents like Rita to walk for water. This struggle has ended. Through a partnership between the Government of Angola, the European Union, and FAO, the Banda Chibia Dam now secures water for agriculture and livelihoods. With over 21 million cubic meters capacity, it irrigates 750 hectares, supporting thousands and enabling climate-smart agriculture and resilience.

Farmer Field Schools taught communities efficient water management and sustainable farming, resulting in green fields, year-round harvests, and improved incomes. Rita now harvests food, not searching for water. This project demonstrates how partnership and innovation transform vulnerability into hope.

Fewer than 20 red wolves remain in the wild, with vehicle strikes posing their most significant threat. To address this critical issue, we helped secure a $25 million federal grant.

This funding will enable the construction of vital wildlife crossings. These crossings will protect red wolves and dozens of other species from road accidents, offering a crucial lifeline for endangered wildlife.
