Doc World | Season 8 Episode 4 | 55m 16s | CC

Anita Chitaya has a gift; she can transform barren soil, challenge gender norms, and inspire her village to fight hunger and climate change. But as worsening weather threatens her home in Malawi, she sets out on a journey across the United States to meet with farmers, activists, and lawmakers, exchanging ideas amid a shifting landscape.
