Subscribe to our channel: FAO of the UN. In Uganda's Kalungu and Manafwa districts, the Clear Supply Chains project is working to protect children in coffee-growing communities. Despite coffee farming supporting many families, economic challenges still put some children at risk of child labour.

This initiative enhances inspections, improves labour standards, and builds local capacity to combat child labour in farms and processing facilities. It aims to promote responsible coffee production while ensuring children remain in school, paving the way for safer and brighter futures.
