Strengthening the climate adaptation capacities of women’s groups in the Léhar area through the Farmer Field School approach

The initiative aims to reduce the vulnerability of agricultural production to the effects of climate change by strengthening the capacities of rural communities. The more local farmers are informed, trained, and equipped, the more resilient and profitable their production will be, ultimately improving food security in the Thiès region of Senegal.
