AgrAbility for Africa staff are responding to a recent tragic mental health breakdown within urban fish-trading communities. This incident, involving a farmer, is not isolated. It reflects the growing pressures faced by many due to poor agricultural yields linked to climate change, which has severely disrupted rain-fed farming. The shifting patterns of planting seasons have led to widespread crop failure, placing immense stress on already vulnerable families.
In response, AgrAbility for Africa is dedicating a full week to providing emotional and psychosocial support to the four affected families, in collaboration with Village Health Teams in the coastal urban informal settlement.
We extend our deepest condolences and prayers to the families during this difficult time.
Rest in peace:
Eteku Gideon, 2
Ryan Odeke, 2
Ignatius Sserwange, 3
