Integrating climate resilience into agricultural and pastoral production for food security in vulnerable rural areas through the Farmers Field School approach in Niger

The project is aimed to enhance the capacity of Niger’s agricultural and pastoral sectors to cope with climate change, by mainstreaming Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) practices and strategies into ongoing agricultural development policies and programmes. The project’s development objective is to help stakeholders adopt a field-based, pragmatic community learning process that leads to an increased understanding, adaptation and eventual wide-scale adoption of improved agro-pastoral practices, which in turn creates a trend towards increasing production, improving livelihoods and enhancing food and nutrition security
