AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Charcoal & Livelihood Skills (Quthing): The ROLL project will run a one-day charcoal production training for community reps in the Let’sa-La-Letsie catchment, turning invasive sehalahala shrubs into an income stream while tackling rangeland damage. Nutrition Messaging (Quthing): Lesotho Red Cross Society and district partners trained Nutrition Club volunteers to strengthen village-level child nutrition communication under UNICEF-funded risk communication and community engagement work. Electricity Reliability (Lesotho): LEC says short alternating power interruptions are temporary and linked to scheduled Eskom transmission maintenance, with affected areas seeing outages of up to about an hour. Climate Support for MSMEs (Maseru): Government launched a M68 million Climate Resilience and Preparedness Facility to co-fund up to 80% of approved investments that help MSMEs withstand droughts, floods and heavy snowfall. SDG Commitments (New York): Lesotho reaffirmed its push to accelerate SDG implementation at the 2026 High-Level Political Forum, highlighting progress across water, energy, industry, cities and partnerships. Jobs Pressure (Lesotho): With returning nationals straining the labour market, Lesotho is urged to accelerate investment and reforms to create new jobs beyond dependence on South African work. Cross-border Logistics (Region): RFA and SAFLA signed an MoU to reduce customs delays and border inefficiencies affecting freight costs. SACU Leadership (Region): Botswana took over SACU chairmanship for the next 12 months, moving from South Africa’s rotation. Vehicle Safety (Regional recall): South Africa’s consumer regulator issued a recall of certain 2026 Ford Transit, Transit Custom and Tourneo Custom models over a transmission fault that can cause loss of first gear or reverse; Lesotho is included in the affected sales/export list.
