Mulimi

At Mulimi, we are proud to celebrate Hillah Chabululwa a brilliant Zambian plant scientist, raised in a farming family, and a key contributor to our farmer-centered mission. Her deepest inspiration comes from the very soil that shaped her, and she passionately views agriculture as a pathway to opportunity, innovation, and lasting wealth creation, far beyond mere survival.

In this United Nations International Year of the Woman Farmer 2026 ( ), Hillah champions the indispensable role of women in Agrifood systems, urging full recognition, empowerment, and equal opportunities for women farmers everywhere.

To Hillah, being a woman farmer means embracing a profound dual role: producer of food and nurturer of life. Women farmers masterfully balance care and domestic responsibilities with agricultural labor, while fueling economic prosperity and securing food and nutrition for families and communities.

When reflecting on women farmers, Hillah sees remarkable strength, timeless wisdom, and quiet yet powerful leadership, resilient managers who maximize limited resources, preserve biodiversity, safeguard seeds, diversify crops, sustain vibrant local markets, and ensure food security, often without the recognition they deserve.

For Hillah, working in Agrifood systems delivers deep rewards, dignity, independence, generational wealth, and meaningful innovation. Through her own journey and work at Mulimi, she has witnessed women's consistent, strategic dedication to value addition and sustainable long-term growth.
Women sustain Agrifood systems at every stage from producing, processing, storing, and trading food to preparing nutritious household meals and leading from the home to boost crop diversity, stabilize incomes, and build community resilience.

Hillah firmly believes promoting women farmers is smart economics, not charity. By closing gender gaps and ensuring equal access to land, technology, finance, training, extension services, and markets, will unlock higher productivity, reduced poverty, and more resilient, inclusive, prosperous Agrifood systems for all.

This , join us at Mulimi in honoring Hillah and all women farmers, amplifying their voices, celebrating their impact, and committing to actions that drive equity and sustainability in agriculture.
