How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Digital Extension in Low-Connectivity Settings
    methodology: digital_extension_low_connectivity
    By delivering localized agricultural and climate information via SMS/USSD platforms, we increase farmer resilience and adaptive capacity because accessible, low-cost digital tools overcome connectivity barriers and ensure timely knowledge transfer in rural communities.
  • Integrated Smallholder Support
    methodology: integrated_smallholder_support
    By combining climate-smart agriculture, regenerative practices, digital extension, and market access, we improve food security and climate resilience in smallholder farming communities because integrated support addresses both ecological and economic drivers of vulnerability, particularly for women and underserved populations.
