Conflict and fragility are at the core of some of the biggest challenges today – they are able to hinder development progress and also to reverse any development gains. Environmental factors are rarely, if ever, the sole cause of conflicts. Countries can experience vulnerable conditions at different level of intensity and under different dimensions: from socio-economic, to environmental to human health. Crises generated by global pandemics, such as COVID–19, can have further negative effects on fragile contexts. Natural resources management, in particular land and water resources, also becomes a most critical challenges under such dire situations. The “Strengthening natural resources management capacities to revitalise agriculture in fragile contexts” project stems from the recognition of the importance of investing in human capital in fragile contexts. The project aims at addressing the loss of human capacity provoked by fragility in Libya, Niger and Mali, three countries equally confronted with the need to improve natural resources management, strengthen national institutions and boost human capital to enhance agricultural productivity, improve food security and progress towards the SDGs. The E-learning nugget report provides an overview of the capacity development activities carried out during the first phase of the project and topics addressed. The report illustrates the participants' responses and an elaboration of pre- and post-training assessments.
