Improving resilience through knowledge sharing and the provision of productive assets in Dosso and Maradi regions

The project was implemented using integrated approaches and community-based platforms – particularly Farmer Field Schools (FFS), Dimitra Clubs and local radio stations – which facilitate the empowerment and capacity building of rural women in vulnerable situations, as well as their access to and control of productive resources. These platforms were used to facilitate diversified food production, storage, trade and consumption, including through community food and nutrition education sessions and knowledge sharing, community cooking demonstrations, local food processing training, the provision of diverse productive assets and labour-saving technologies, as well as food sales to school canteens. Tailored support to women’s groups, including in terms of income, knowledge and practices, was a strong focus throughout. This good practice focuses on the project Accelerating Progress towards the Economic Empowerment of Rural Women aimed at securing rural women’s livelihoods and rights in the Dosso and Maradi regions of the Niger. -
