-The Newid Byd team,

-Uganda in Africa.

0:00:010:00:04

-They've built a goat shed, made

-jewellery with HIV/AIDS sufferers...

0:00:050:00:11

-..and taught children

-in Namatala slum.

0:00:110:00:13

-What's next?

0:00:140:00:15

-The Newid Byd team's

-adventure continues.

0:00:160:00:19

-Uganda, an East African country

-on the equator.

0:00:540:00:58

-It is the source of the Nile,

-the longest river in the world.

0:00:580:01:02

-Its capital is Kampala.

0:01:040:01:06

-A poor country, its inhabitants must

-live on less than 75 pence a day.

0:01:060:01:11

-The Newid Byd team - Luis, Iestyn,

-Rachel, Ceri and leader, Arwel...

0:01:240:01:29

-..have worked on

-a variety of projects in Uganda.

0:01:300:01:33

-It's been a very busy fortnight.

0:01:350:01:37

-Our last project

-was with the Dolen Ffermio charity.

0:01:370:01:41

-We built a goat shed

-in the Kumi province...

0:01:410:01:45

-..to set an example

-for local farmers...

0:01:450:01:48

-..on how to keep

-their goats healthy...

0:01:480:01:51

-..in order to obtain

-more meat and milk from them...

0:01:510:01:55

-..to increase their income.

0:01:550:01:58

-We had a great day on my birthday.

0:01:580:02:00

-We had a party to celebrate

-the goat shed's completion.

0:02:000:02:04

-While we were partying with the

-locals, the gang brought out a cake.

0:02:050:02:10

-# Happy birthday to you,

-happy birthday to you #

0:02:100:02:13

-Although it's been fun,

-it's also been hard at times.

0:02:140:02:17

-Working in the slum

-was very challenging.

0:02:180:02:21

-We saw so much poverty there.

0:02:210:02:24

-Working with the children was sad

-because they had so little.

0:02:240:02:28

-We met around 30 women with HIV...

0:02:300:02:33

-..who came together as a group

-to make jewellery.

0:02:330:02:36

-We also met a woman called Madina.

0:02:370:02:40

-Her story was sad because

-she had to look after 15 children.

0:02:400:02:45

-I was glad I heard her story.

0:02:460:02:48

-They've been building structures

-to house animals...

0:02:500:02:54

-..for one kind of farming...

0:02:540:02:56

-..but now we're moving on

-to another kind of farming...

0:02:570:03:00

-..which involves

-harvesting coffee crops.

0:03:010:03:04

-The team is on its way to Konokoyi

-on the slopes of Mount Elgon...

0:03:160:03:21

-..an extinct volcano and

-one of the highest peaks in Africa.

0:03:210:03:25

-This area is famous

-for its Arabica coffee beans.

0:03:260:03:29

-They will be working

-with the Gumutindo Co-operative...

0:03:290:03:33

-..a group of local farmers who

-sell their coffee independently...

0:03:330:03:37

-..to ensure

-they get a better price.

0:03:370:03:40

-They are fair-trade farmers

-and there are 7,000 members...

0:03:410:03:45

-..involved

-in 11 smaller co-operatives.

0:03:450:03:48

-Hello, my name's Arwel.

0:03:500:03:52

-One of those is the Konokoyi Co-op.

0:03:520:03:55

-They are greeted

-by Chairman Nimrod Wambette.

0:03:550:03:58

-I'm Luis.

0:03:580:04:00

-They will stay at Nimrod's house...

0:04:000:04:03

-..during their stay

-as there are no hotels here.

0:04:030:04:06

-Goodnight, team. Sleep tight.

0:04:110:04:13

-The following day,

-Nimrod is keen for them...

0:04:220:04:25

-..to experience coffee farming.

0:04:250:04:28

-They have very little but a cup of

-coffee for breakfast - what else...

0:04:280:04:32

-..before they set off for work.

0:04:330:04:35

-James is a 46-year-old farmer.

0:04:480:04:50

-He and his wife have six children.

0:04:500:04:53

-He also looks after

-three other members of his family.

0:04:530:04:57

-James owns 3.5 acres of land...

0:04:580:05:00

-..and seven coffee plantations.

0:05:010:05:03

-Some of the cherries

-are ripe for picking.

0:05:030:05:06

-He relies on the gang

-to help him with the harvesting.

0:05:070:05:10

-So only the red, red ones, yes?

0:05:120:05:14

-Why don't we split up so that

-we pick from different trees?

0:05:170:05:20

-I never thought coffee was red.

0:05:290:05:32

-I bet a whole load of them

-goes into making a jar.

0:05:320:05:36

-Picking coffee from the shrubs

-is hard work on an empty stomach.

0:05:420:05:47

-I only had a cup of coffee for

-breakfast so I've little energy.

0:05:470:05:51

-It takes a long time...

0:05:550:05:58

-..to collect a small number.

0:05:580:06:00

-I can't imagine how the farmers

-do it on an empty stomach...

0:06:010:06:06

-..and go for long hours

-picking cherries.

0:06:060:06:09

-I've enjoyed picking cherries.

-It's a relaxing thing to do.

0:06:120:06:16

-I can imagine

-how it must be in hot weather...

0:06:170:06:20

-..when the trees

-are full of red cherries.

0:06:200:06:23

-It must be hard work, especially

-if they're in a rush to pick them.

0:06:240:06:28

-I've enjoyed this morning.

-Picking is relaxing.

0:06:280:06:32

-But there aren't

-many red cherries on the trees.

0:06:320:06:36

-Climate change...

0:06:360:06:39

-..has affected

-the seasons here in Uganda.

0:06:390:06:42

-There has been

-more rainfall and less sun.

0:06:430:06:46

-The rain should cease in June...

0:06:460:06:49

-..but it's September already

-and it's still raining.

0:06:490:06:53

-The heat is important to them.

0:06:540:06:56

-Direct sunlight on the coffee,

-or the cherries, means they burn.

0:06:560:07:01

-So they just need the heat

-for them to ripen.

0:07:010:07:05

-It's been easy for us because

-only a small number of them...

0:07:060:07:10

-..are ready to be pulped.

0:07:100:07:13

-I'm disappointed

-we couldn't help more.

0:07:140:07:17

-After a morning

-of collecting the cherries...

0:07:210:07:24

-..they carry them

-back to the farmhouse.

0:07:240:07:27

-The weather is turning, which

-often happens in the mountains.

0:07:270:07:31

-The rain is never ending.

0:07:320:07:33

-While they take shelter, they

-have a chance to chat to James.

0:07:350:07:40

-HE SPEAKS NATIVE LANGUAGE

0:07:400:07:42

-James grows more than just coffee.

0:07:440:07:47

-He grows yams and bananas.

0:07:470:07:50

-But coffee

-is his main source of income.

0:07:500:07:54

-He says it allows him

-to sustain his family.

0:07:550:07:58

-A fair-trade farmer like James...

0:07:580:08:02

-..gets

-double the average price of coffee.

0:08:020:08:05

-The price of coffee per kilogram...

0:08:050:08:08

-..is currently a pound.

0:08:080:08:10

-The price doubles to around 2.20...

0:08:100:08:14

-..if you're a fair-trade farmer,

-which is great.

0:08:150:08:18

-He also receives an additional

-premium on top of the price...

0:08:180:08:23

-..because he's an organic farmer.

0:08:230:08:25

-Some of the money is also

-put aside for the community.

0:08:260:08:30

-But the coffee farmers, fair-trade

-or otherwise, face many problems.

0:08:310:08:36

-The biggest problem

-is climate change.

0:08:370:08:39

-Climate change has

-a massive impact on farmers here...

0:08:440:08:48

-..because the seasons in Uganda

-are so random.

0:08:480:08:53

-If the dry spell continues...

0:08:530:08:55

-..the planting process is delayed...

0:08:550:08:58

-..and the household income

-is reduced.

0:08:580:09:01

-The coffee cherries need

-constant heat to ripen and mature...

0:09:030:09:08

-..but they fail to thrive

-in intense heat.

0:09:080:09:11

-If the coffee isn't shaded...

0:09:110:09:14

-..the sun burns the crops.

0:09:140:09:17

-They need shade, but since there

-is a shortage of trees in Uganda...

0:09:170:09:22

-..it becomes a problem for them.

0:09:230:09:26

-It's getting the balance between

-the rain, the shade and the sun?

0:09:270:09:31

-All those factors are

-key elements to get a good crop?

0:09:310:09:35

-The rain ceases and the team

-begins the next process...

0:09:380:09:42

-..of washing the cherries

-and separating them.

0:09:420:09:46

-The ones that were floating have

-seeds inside them, but they're bad.

0:09:480:09:53

-The ones that sink, when you open

-them, they're nice and solid.

0:09:530:09:58

-They're the best beans.

0:09:580:10:00

-He's feeding the ones that have

-been soaked into this machine...

0:10:040:10:09

-..which is over 100 years old.

0:10:090:10:11

-Oh, wow! Look.

0:10:190:10:22

-The skin has come off.

0:10:220:10:24

-How cool is that!

0:10:240:10:27

-They look like coffee beans now.

0:10:280:10:30

-That's so cool.

0:10:320:10:34

-Whoa, that's cool.

0:10:340:10:37

-Can I spin and turn it?

0:10:370:10:40

-Spin and turn it?

0:10:400:10:42

-Is it difficult?

-So that's all skin there?

0:10:450:10:48

-Yes, it's all skin.

0:10:480:10:50

-It's much harder

-than I thought it would be.

0:10:500:10:53

-The machine is old

-but I don't think that's to blame!

0:10:530:10:57

-It's removing the skin from

-the beans, so they come out bare.

0:10:570:11:01

-I wouldn't like to do this

-as my everyday job...

0:11:020:11:07

-..because it's dirty work, in a way.

0:11:070:11:10

-It requires a lot of strength,

-so I couldn't do it all the time.

0:11:110:11:15

-I'm just making sure that the beans

-are collected in this bucket...

0:11:170:11:21

-..and all the skin is discarded.

0:11:220:11:24

-I'm removing the skin

-from the ones...

0:11:250:11:29

-..that still have skins on them.

0:11:290:11:31

-I'm also separating

-the good ones from the bad ones.

0:11:320:11:35

-It doesn't smell like coffee,

-it smells like sour fruit.

0:11:370:11:40

-I never thought it'd take this long

-to harvest coffee.

0:11:430:11:46

-When you see a jar, you'd never know

-it took all these processes...

0:11:460:11:51

-..to make it.

0:11:520:11:53

-The team has already heard about

-problems to do with the weather...

0:11:580:12:03

-..but as they return to Konokoyi,

-they encounter them for themselves.

0:12:030:12:08

-The morning's rain has turned

-the road into mud and soft clay.

0:12:120:12:16

-The minibuses

-are having difficulty getting down.

0:12:160:12:19

-The team decides it's safer to walk

-but I'm not convinced!

0:12:240:12:29

-It rained heavily this morning...

0:12:340:12:37

-..and the hill

-we drove up turned to mud.

0:12:370:12:41

-I wasn't happy

-that the team was in the vans...

0:12:410:12:45

-..so we let the drivers

-go down, one at a time.

0:12:450:12:49

-The team's van got stuck in a ditch.

0:12:490:12:53

-I was very nervous, I must admit...

0:12:530:12:56

-..but the safest place to be

-was outside the van.

0:12:560:12:59

-It was the drivers' decision

-to move the vans.

0:13:000:13:04

-The roads were a mess.

0:13:050:13:07

-The vans were skidding and there

-were children at the roadside.

0:13:070:13:11

-Their lives were in danger.

0:13:120:13:14

-Yes, I was very nervous.

0:13:150:13:17

-The drivers

-looked comfortable going downhill...

0:13:170:13:21

-..but I didn't like it at all.

0:13:210:13:25

-I was in the back going, ooh!

0:13:250:13:27

-It gave us quite a fright...

0:13:270:13:30

-..because the buses

-were skidding in all directions.

0:13:300:13:35

-They were coming downhill

-and veering into the sides.

0:13:350:13:39

-It was really frightening.

0:13:390:13:41

-I was more nervous watching them

-than the drivers were driving!

0:13:410:13:45

-Everybody had their faces

-in their hands out of fear!

0:13:460:13:50

-I admire the drivers' determination

-in one respect...

0:13:500:13:56

-..after we'd said to them...

0:13:560:13:59

-.."No, no, don't go,"

-but they went ahead.

0:13:590:14:02

-I wouldn't have risked it in my car.

0:14:030:14:05

-Perhaps we're just soft...

0:14:050:14:08

-..whereas they're used

-to driving on roads like this.

0:14:080:14:12

-They're just doing their job.

0:14:120:14:15

-After the excitement, the team is

-glad to reach the coffee storehouse.

0:14:210:14:26

-Nimrod is there to show them around.

0:14:260:14:29

-The Konokoyi Coffee Co-op

-produces Fairtrade coffee.

0:14:320:14:36

-This status

-ensures that the 500 members...

0:14:360:14:40

-..get a consistently fair price

-for their produce.

0:14:400:14:44

-That looks heavy.

0:14:440:14:45

-That looks heavy.

-

-It is here, at the warehouse...

0:14:450:14:47

-..that the paperwork

-and the weighing is done.

0:14:470:14:51

-They're just checking

-for small bits.

0:14:560:14:59

-The coffee expert...

0:15:000:15:02

-..took a sample...

0:15:020:15:05

-..to measure the beans'

-water content and quality.

0:15:050:15:11

-The coffee...

0:15:110:15:13

-..is sent to Mbale...

0:15:130:15:15

-..where the Gumutindo Co-operative

-exports it to different countries.

0:15:160:15:20

-It's sent to Britain...

0:15:210:15:23

-..America, New Zealand,

-Scotland and Belgium...

0:15:230:15:28

-..so it has to be good quality

-if it's sold to wealthy countries.

0:15:290:15:34

-It's a very fussy process...

0:15:360:15:40

-..because the coffee

-has to be of a high standard.

0:15:400:15:44

-It's Monday morning

-and it's an important day.

0:15:520:15:55

-It's market day and people

-are selling their produce.

0:15:550:15:59

-From vegetables and fruit

-to clothes, soap and animals.

0:15:590:16:04

-Sorry, Rachel,

-but there are hens here.

0:16:040:16:07

-Fancy buying a hen, Rachel?

0:16:070:16:09

-Fancy buying a hen, Rachel?

-

-They're three pounds each.

0:16:090:16:11

-No, it's OK.

0:16:110:16:13

-I'll stay here.

0:16:140:16:16

-Why don't you like them again?

0:16:160:16:19

-When I was small,

-a peacock attacked me...

0:16:200:16:24

-..so I don't like

-anything that pecks.

0:16:250:16:28

-Rachel

-bravely ventures through them.

0:16:280:16:31

-Iestyn and Luis

-stay behind to find out more.

0:16:310:16:35

-How much is a chicken worth?

0:16:350:16:38

-Five pounds.

0:16:400:16:42

-That's a proper chicken run.

0:16:490:16:52

-Can I hold one?

0:16:520:16:54

-Do you fancy buying one, Luis?

0:16:580:17:00

-It stinks.

0:17:010:17:03

-Do you want to see it?

0:17:060:17:07

-Do you want to see it?

-

-No.

0:17:070:17:09

-Don't. Please don't.

0:17:090:17:11

-Iestyn

-isn't a fan of chickens either.

0:17:130:17:16

-What about goats then?

0:17:160:17:19

-They don't kick, do they?

0:17:190:17:20

-They don't kick, do they?

-

-I'm not sure.

0:17:200:17:22

-Are you afraid of them, Iest?

0:17:280:17:30

-Lots of people are laughing at me.

-Don't leave me!

0:17:320:17:35

-Last time they were are at a meat

-stall, there were lots of flies.

0:17:410:17:46

-The skin is still on the meat.

-There are no flies here, are there?

0:17:460:17:51

-Do you think that's a liver?

0:17:510:17:53

-Which one? No idea.

0:17:540:17:55

-Meat.

0:17:560:17:58

-Interesting. Nice!

0:17:580:18:01

-Let's move on.

0:18:010:18:03

-It's an important day

-at the local school too.

0:18:120:18:15

-The first day of term.

0:18:150:18:17

-Although there are

-usually 300 pupils at this school...

0:18:170:18:21

-..there are just over 100 today...

0:18:220:18:24

-..because there is another week

-to go before they all return.

0:18:240:18:28

-Among them today is

-James the coffee farmer's children.

0:18:290:18:33

-"It was raining heavily,

-we duck a bit."

0:18:350:18:39

-How many of you go to school?

0:18:390:18:42

-Five children who come to school.

0:18:430:18:45

-Five of you?

-She said that all the children

-in her family went to school...

0:18:480:18:52

-..apart from

-the three-year-old who's too young.

0:18:520:18:55

-They're all at primary school

-apart from the eldest...

0:18:550:18:58

-..who's 20 and at secondary school.

0:18:590:19:02

-The only way they can afford it...

0:19:020:19:05

-..is because their father

-sells Fairtrade coffee...

0:19:050:19:08

-..to pay for their education

-and the extra costs of schooling.

0:19:090:19:15

-Do you enjoy school?

0:19:150:19:16

-Do you enjoy school?

-

-I like school.

0:19:160:19:18

-When I finish education...

0:19:190:19:21

-..I want to be a teacher.

0:19:220:19:24

-So do I.

-I want to be a teacher as well.

0:19:240:19:27

-The fact they're all in school

-is a bit of a rarity here.

0:19:270:19:31

-Some people can only afford

-to send one child to school...

0:19:310:19:37

-..so the fact that five of them

-are receiving an education...

0:19:370:19:41

-..proves how effective

-Fairtrade is in this country.

0:19:420:19:46

-The cherries

-the Newid Byd team have picked...

0:19:520:19:55

-..have turned sour overnight.

0:19:560:19:58

-They are ready for the next step.

0:19:580:20:00

-James shows Arwel, Rachel and Iestyn

-how to wash them meticulously.

0:20:010:20:06

-So you just clean them up, yeah?

0:20:080:20:11

-Anything that's floating,

-you need to get rid of it.

0:20:110:20:15

-It smells like wine.

0:20:150:20:17

-It actually smells like wine.

0:20:170:20:20

-Right, ready?

0:20:200:20:21

-Right, ready?

-

-The dirty water is thrown away...

0:20:210:20:23

-..and the process is repeated.

0:20:240:20:26

-..and the process is repeated.

-

-There are still skins on them.

0:20:260:20:28

-This is the second wash of three.

0:20:310:20:33

-This is

-going to turn into a water fight.

0:20:340:20:36

-Ooh, watch out!

0:20:370:20:39

-After the third wash,

-the beans are ready.

0:20:390:20:43

-After washing them,

-James shows Luis and Ceri...

0:20:460:20:49

-..how to lay the beans out to dry.

0:20:500:20:52

-They must once again separate

-the good ones from the bad.

0:20:520:20:56

-So you just remove the skin?

0:20:580:20:59

-So you just remove the skin?

-

-Yes.

0:20:590:21:01

-They have to be left

-in intense heat...

0:21:020:21:05

-..and no rain for seven days.

0:21:050:21:08

-If it rains, they need to dry out

-for maybe 10 or 11 days.

0:21:080:21:12

-It's strange there are still skins

-on them after being washed.

0:21:120:21:18

-They look like nuts to me.

0:21:190:21:21

-Or birdseed.

0:21:220:21:24

-The team has learnt a lot...

0:21:340:21:37

-..and appreciates the work

-that goes into producing coffee.

0:21:380:21:42

-I didn't realize

-how precise it had to be.

0:21:420:21:45

-I just thought you picked them

-from a tree or something.

0:21:450:21:49

-I'm really surprised how much effort

-goes into the process.

0:21:490:21:54

-You have to pick the beans

-from the tree, wash them...

0:21:560:22:01

-..pick out the bad ones...

0:22:010:22:04

-..pulp them and wash them again.

0:22:040:22:07

-Then you have to leave them ferment,

-wash them a further three times...

0:22:070:22:12

-..remove the skin and let them

-dry, so it's a long process.

0:22:130:22:17

-The process doesn't even end here

-because they then export it...

0:22:190:22:23

-..for it to be roasted

-and prepared in Europe.

0:22:240:22:27

-The time and effort the farmers

-put into it here is incredible.

0:22:270:22:33

-The advantages of fair-trade farming

-are important to local farmers.

0:22:350:22:40

-It's incredible to think they get

-double the price of normal coffee.

0:22:400:22:46

-They get

-a stable income every month...

0:22:460:22:51

-..so they can plan in advance...

0:22:510:22:55

-..because they know

-exactly how much they'll have.

0:22:550:22:58

-James can afford to pay for

-six of his children to be educated.

0:22:590:23:04

-I don't drink coffee

-but I appreciate how it's made.

0:23:050:23:08

-Fairtrade is incredibly effective...

0:23:080:23:11

-..and I'm certainly going to support

-Fairtrade products at home.

0:23:110:23:16

-Bye!

0:23:160:23:18

-Bye! Safe journey.

0:23:180:23:20

-Next time, the team

-goes to work at a tree plantation.

0:23:240:23:28

-Is that... a weed?

0:23:290:23:33

-Luis doesn't have

-much luck collecting water.

0:23:340:23:37

-That was quite embarrassing.

0:23:370:23:39

-Their final project in Uganda

-is to establish a library.

0:23:400:23:44

-Visit the website

-to find out more about the team.
