Insightful day at #SignatureProgramForum2026 with Heifer Uganda. Community-led development + interactive radio is a powerful combo for reaching smallholder farmers at scale. Excited about where FRI Uganda's Green Leaf platform can support this work #FarmRadio #Uganda #Agriculture
Yesterday, @farmradio joined the @Heifer Uganda Signature Program Forum 2026 at @sheratonhotels Kampala represented by @StephenEcaat
Theme: "Celebrating Progress, Sharing Lessons, Shaping the Future of the Agri-food Sector," uniting stakeholders to build partnerships toward 2030.
If we connect waste systems to farms, knowledge to action and actors to each other- Zero waste communities in Uganda are achievable. Platforms like Green Leaf run by Farm Radio International are ready to support that transformation. @farmradio @KCCAUG @csjuganda @MAAIF_Uganda
Replying to @GayoUganda
With over 70% of waste being organic, the opportunity is huge—turn waste into compost, energy, and livelihoods through #CircularRegenerativeAgriculture.
The focus?
✔️ #WasteSegregation
✔️ #Recycling
✔️ Composting & resource recovery
✔️ Inclusion of informal workers

Last week in Kampala, we convened stakeholders to co-create solutions for a #ZeroWaste future.
At the heart of it: the Kampala Zero Waste Strategy 2026–2030—a roadmap to move from “collect & dump” to a thriving #CircularEconomy.
