The article highlights a resilience mechanism called the PROGRESS project, funded by the Zimbabwe Resilience Building Fund, which has significantly improved the lives of small-scale farmers in Beitbridge, Zimbabwe, amidst climate change challenges. The project has been particularly beneficial for Raina Muleya, a widow and grandmother, who joined in 2020 and has since become a key member of the Mvelaphanda Poultry Project. The project started in May 2021, with initial support including 125 chickens and feed, and has since been expanding, with the group successfully raising four batches of chickens. This venture has not only provided a source of income but also allowed members to save and loan funds at 10% interest, supporting the growth of the project. The project has been pivotal in improving the economic stability of its members, enabling them to purchase necessary items, invest in assets, and cover expenses, as shown by the group's income of R27,600 from the sale of three batches of chickens. The members are optimistic about the future and plan to diversify their project for increased earnings.
