Where we work
Since 1988, Ripple Effect has supported farming families across Africa to end hunger, build resilient livelihoods and restore the land.
Today, we work in five countries and partner in a sixth, adapting our approach to local challenges while strengthening communities for the long term.
Our work started in Uganda in 1988. Since then, we’ve partnered with communities to diversify crop production, improve nutrition and strengthen farmers’ access to local markets. Our active projects are enabling families to increase their incomes and build more secure futures.

Since 2013, we’ve worked alongside farming families in rural Burundi to improve food security and strengthen resilience to the climate crisis. Through climate-smart agriculture, improved livestock management and community support systems, families are growing more food, earning more income and reducing hunger.

In rural Ethiopia, many families face recurring drought, rising food prices and limited economic opportunities. Since 2006, we’ve partnered with communities most at risk of poverty to improve food security, increase incomes and build climate resilience.
