System Change
We drive transformative change by integrating food security and climate resilience with gender equity and environmental restoration. The system change focuses on creating a sustainable and equitable agricultural landscape through the following strategies:
-
Holistic Agricultural Development: Implement advanced agricultural techniques and technologies that enhance productivity and sustainability. This includes promoting climate-smart agriculture, optimizing resource use, and improving market access for smallholder farmers.
-
Empowering Women: Develop and execute gender-sensitive programs that enhance women’s roles and opportunities in agriculture. This involves providing training, access to resources, and leadership opportunities to empower women as key stakeholders in food security and climate resilience.
-
Strengthening Agricultural Value Chains: Support resource-deficient actors along the agricultural value chain by providing capacity-building, financial resources, and infrastructure. This aims to improve efficiency, reduce post-harvest losses, and create more robust market linkages.
-
Environmental Restoration: Integrate environmental restoration efforts into agricultural practices to improve ecosystem health and resilience. This includes habitat restoration, pollution control, and sustainable land management practices.
-
Collaborative Partnerships: Foster partnerships with local communities, government agencies, and international organizations to amplify impact, share knowledge, and coordinate efforts across sectors.
By addressing these interconnected areas, we Aim to create a resilient and equitable agricultural system that supports food security, climate adaptation, and sustainable development.
