Sister Projects
PrAEctiCe
PrAEctiCe facilitates smallholder farmers in their agroecological evolution. It moves beyond existing indicator frameworks by converting concepts into action by providing a novel agroecology indicator set for East Africa’s agroecology advisors.
The decision support tool assists agroecological farming practices in a local context, focusing on agroecological practices with a high potential for efficient farming with minimal climate impacts.
The vision of PrAEctiCe is to help smallholder farmers in their agroecological transition by exploring the potential of agroecological practices in East Africa.
PrAEctiCe aims to provide a novel agroecology indicator set focusing on circular water-energy-nutrient systems of integrated aqua-agriculture while keeping the smallholder farmer’s needs at the centre.
CANALLS
CANALLS aims to drive agroecological transitions in the humid tropics of Central and Eastern Africa via multi-actor transdisciplinary Agroecology Living Labs (ALLs) and providing holistic agroecological solutions that meet the challenges of the local food systems.
CIRAWA
CIRAWA is working with small-holder farmers in West Africa to improve food nutrition, local livelihoods, and ecosystem health.
Bringing together 14 partners from 9 countries, CIRAWA is developing new agroecological-based practices that build on existing local and scientific knowledge to help create more resilient food supply chains in 8 regions across Cape Verde, Ghana, Senegal, and The Gambia.
CIRAWA aims to demonstrate how working with nature can enhance ecosystem health and biodiversity, while improving local livelihoods and climate resilience using four key agroecological approaches.
