Synopsis (short abstract) Esta iniciativa descreve como a construção de pomar na escola primária do sector Lomanda II, localizada na comuna da Chipipa, província do Huambo, em Angola, transforma-se em acções práticas de consciencialização ambiental com o objectivo de revitalizar um ecossistema de pastagem degradada na comunidade. Através do pomar, o Projecto de Gestão Sustentável de Terras em Paisagens Seleccionadas no Sudoeste de Angola (ZAEC), financiado pelo Fundo Global do Ambiente (GEF) e implementado pelo Ministério do Ambiente com apoio técnico da FAO, busca proporcionar uma oportunidade prática de aprendizado para os alunos, enquanto aborda os desafios ambientais locais. O projeto ZAEC tem desenvolvido actividades para reverter tendências negativas de degradação de terras no Sudoeste de Angola (Huambo e Benguela), utilizando abordagens sustentáveis para o planeamento, tomada de decisões e gestão de terras, a partir de métodos participativos para fortalecer a capacidade das partes interessadas, locais.

    In Southwest Angola, the impacts of climate change have contributed to a reduction in soil coverage and an increase in soil erosion. To address these challenges, the GEF project "Land Rehabilitation and Rangelands Management in Smallholders Agro-pastoral Production Systems in South Western Angola” supported activities contributing to the strengthening of capacity and increase in knowledge for the participatory planning of mainstreamed land management. The project contributed to several outcomes at institutional level and increased community awareness and capacity on sustainable agriculture systems. Although there is evidence of an improvement in the livelihoods of the beneficiaries, the project achievement of the environmental objective is moderately satisfactory as rehabilitation of rangelands takes a significant amount of time to generate effects. Moving forward, to see impacts there is the need for beginning a project outcome sustainability strategy right from project start, in addition to promote partnerships with national research institutions to generate national and regional knowledge.
