This project supports Ghana's efforts to achieve food security through environmentally sound agricultural initiatives in the country's three northern (and poorest) regions. It provides funding for local initiatives developed by Ghanaian non-governmental organizations and the private sector in collaboration with Canadian and international organizations. This project is expected to: 1) increase the use of innovative, environmentally sound agricultural technologies and practices in target communities; 2) enhance the ability of Ghanaian organizations to support food security and sustainable agriculture in Ghana's three northern regions; and 3) foster the capacity of local organizations to promote equality between women and men.
