is from M’bang’ombe in Lilongwe District. Grace’s parents are farmers and she started showing interest in agriculture at a young age. Currently, she is in her final year of secondary education. At 17 she joined a club developed by Total Land Care in her village which aims to teach farmers more sustainable farming practices. The club performs drama called Muulimi muli Phindu (which means “farming is profitable”) in the surrounding communities. Besides her other responsibilities as a secretary, she is also responsible for mobilising youths to join the club. Grace is working with a team of three other colleagues - Binfred Mthambala, Kambeni Chimtolo and Precious Chimangiro. Together they aim for farmers to learn better ways of farming in a short period of time through seeing videos from across the world, but most importantly, hearing them in their own language.
