In an area, where years of conflict and flooding have undermined livelihoods, climatesmart farming is sowing the seeds of resilience. Gany Jiech Yoach, once reliant on food relief, is now cultivating maize using tools and training provided through an RSRTF-supported initiative. His flourishing garden—fenced by hand and nourished with hope—stands as a beacon for his community.

From conflict to craftsmanship—Akot's journey from an idle youth in a violence-prone village to a thriving tailor in Tonj is a powerful reminder of what targeted peacebuilding and vocational training can achieve. Through RSRTF’s Kong Koc Area-Based Programme, hope is being stitched back into the fabric of communities once torn by conflict.
