The project aims to increase economic, social and ecological resilience to climate variability and change of 12,000 resource-poor farming households in the Woreda district of Fogera in the Amhara Regional State of Ethiopia. Food and nutrition security of beneficiaries is increased by promoting diversified and integrated crop and livestock production systems, increasing soil fertility and making better use of available water. The sustainable management of natural resources in the wider catchment area is improved by restoring private and community-owned forests and grasslands through effective, affordable and replicable solutions. The project also strengthens local stakeholders’ capacity to negotiate and jointly implement actions to restore and enhance selected natural capital assets through a collaborative landscape approach.
