BUNYALA AGR-CLIMATE ACTION IMPACT SOLUTION COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATION

My Motivation to Join Catalyst Now As a passionate social entrepreneur and climate action advocate, my motivation to join Catalyst Now is driven by a deep commitment to systemic change, collaboration, and community-driven solutions that create lasting impact. 1. Driving Systemic Change for Smallholder Farmers & Climate Action Through my work with Bunyala Agri Climate Action Impact Solutions, I have seen firsthand the challenges that smallholder farmers and fisher communities face—climate change, limited market access, high input costs, and a lack of sustainable solutions. By leveraging innovative approaches such as Black Soldier Fly (BSF) feed production, renewable energy solutions, and digital skills training, I aim to scale sustainable and climate-smart agricultural practices that empower these communities. 2. Collaboration as a Key to Transformative Impact I believe in the power of collective action. Catalyst Now presents an incredible opportunity to connect with like-minded changemakers, share knowledge, and co-create solutions that address global challenges. By joining this network, I hope to bring African grassroots innovations to a global stage while also learning from successful models worldwide. 3. Amplifying Local Voices & Unlocking Opportunities Many grassroots initiatives lack the visibility and support needed to scale. Joining Catalyst Now will provide a platform to amplify the voices of local farmers, youth entrepreneurs, and climate advocates, ensuring they access the resources, funding, and partnerships required to accelerate their impact. 4. Advancing the SDGs & Strengthening the Social Entrepreneurship Ecosystem I am committed to advancing SDGs 2 (Zero Hunger), 5 (Gender Equality), 13 (Climate Action), and 17 (Partnerships for the Goals). Through Catalyst Now, I aim to build stronger networks, advocate for policy change, and implement scalable models that create economic opportunities while addressing climate challenges. Conclusion: A Vision for Inclusive and Sustainable Impact By joining Catalyst Now, I am not just looking to connect—I am ready to collaborate, innovate, and drive meaningful change. Together, we can transform communities, uplift small businesses, and build a future where sustainability and inclusivity are at the core of global development. I am excited for this journey and look forward to making an impact alongside fellow changemakers! 🚀
