This project strengthens climate resilience among vulnerable rural communities in DRC through reforestation, sustainable agriculture, and climate education. It supports farmers to adapt to climate change impacts such as drought and soil degradation. By restoring ecosystems and promoting sustainable practices, the project improves food security and protects livelihoods.
Climate change in DRC is causing increased droughts, soil degradation, and reduced agricultural productivity. Over 70% of rural households depend on agriculture, yet many lack knowledge and resources to adapt. This leads to food insecurity, poverty, and environmental degradation.
The project will support over 500 farmers with climate-smart practices and plant five thousands of trees to restore ecosystems in the rural areas. Training and resources will improve soil fertility and crop yields by up to 30%. Communities will gain resilience against climate shocks and protect their livelihoods.
Over 5,000 people will benefit from improved agricultural productivity and restored ecosystems. Reforestation will reduce environmental degradation and enhance climate resilience. Increased food security and income will contribute to sustainable development and community stability.
