AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Solid Waste Warning: The Ombudsman says Lesotho’s solid waste is poorly managed, with garbage dumped in unsafe areas and often burned openly, threatening health and the environment; she flags unprotected, uncertified dump sites near homes and schools, including the Ts’osane site where earlier relocation recommendations were not implemented. Biodiversity Focus: The Ministry of Environment and Forestry marked International Day for Biodiversity in Semonkong under “Acting Locally for Global Impact,” highlighting highland wetlands for water regulation, biodiversity support, climate resilience and community livelihoods. Water Safety Alarm: Tlhaha-lia-Tloka residents in Nazareth report briny, salty well water and fear contamination from an aquifer near a cemetery, urging urgent safe water infrastructure to prevent a public health crisis. Access to Justice: Qacha’s Nek launched decentralised legal aid offices with EU support, aiming to improve access to justice for remote and vulnerable communities. Livelihood Pressure: Street vendors warn sudden new tax obligations could force closures, as many say they earn too little to pay levies. Nutrition Support: Lesotho Red Cross rolls out a three-month nutrition messaging project in Mafeteng to reach hard-to-reach areas with infant feeding guidance amid climate-linked challenges. Carbon Markets: A new Southern Africa alliance on carbon markets and climate finance includes Lesotho, aiming to help countries capture more value from global carbon trading under Paris Agreement Article 6.
