Community-led action for local growth

In Fort Brown, a rural community in the Eastern Cape, Ubunye is supporting a cluster of interconnected projects that are building resilience, leadership, and opportunity from the ground up. At the heart of this initiative is the belief that sustainable development begins with local people leading the way - through collaboration, creativity, and care for their community.
