This video tells the inspiring story of Maw Maw Hmwe and women farmers in Myanmar's Magway Region. Facing climate challenges, they transformed their livelihoods by establishing the Taw Win Thazin rice noodle enterprise. Supported by an FAO women’s savings and credit group, they added value to local rice, creating sustainable income.
Through improved access to finance, training, and machinery, these women are building resilience and strengthening local food systems. Their women-led business demonstrates how communities and hope can be nourished, even in times of crisis, fostering financial stability for families like Maw Maw's.

In Uganda, limited veterinary services create gaps in routine livestock healthcare for smallholder farmers. Private-sector veterinary paraprofessionals (VPPs) are crucial in filling this need.
Supported by the Gates Foundation, FAO and partners empower VPPs with technical and business training. This model strengthens farm productivity by positioning VPPs as frontline providers of preventive livestock healthcare. A webinar highlights how VPPs improve animal health access, promote husbandry, and boost their income.
