About the header image: Bol Gatkuoth cultivates his rice field in Paguir, South Sudan, where repeated flooding has destroyed crops. Action Against Hunger has promoted rice cultivation as a climate adaptation strategy, because while millet and maize are prone to drowning, rice thrives under such conditions.
