South-South Cooperation is transforming lives in Uganda – and farmers are harvesting the benefits! Rose Kabagyeni, Senior Presidential Advisor on Agriculture, told CGTN's Hu Binyi that this global partnership model has become a game-changer for rural communities.
'Farmers aren’t just growing crops – they’re growing opportunities,' Kabagyeni said, highlighting how shared agricultural knowledge from other developing nations has increased both productivity and incomes. The collaboration lets Ugandan farmers swap sustainable farming hacks and tech tips with peers worldwide, creating what she calls a 'global classroom without walls.'
With 76% of Uganda’s workforce employed in agriculture, this skills upgrade could ripple through the entire economy. Could this be the blueprint for lifting up rural communities across the Global South?
