Climate change is making Mozambique’s weather patterns less predictable. Droughts are increasing in frequency and severity.

These coffee plants are growing in Gorongosa National Park, with 815,000 coffee trees in the park. The coffee plants provide incomes for 400 local farmers, 40% of whom are women.
