    Building forward better initiative: Strengthening natural resources management capacities to revitalize agriculture in fragile contexts
    E-learning Nugget Briefs

    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. In the framework of the project a number of webinars (e-learning courses) have been organized focusing on 13 thematic areas related to natural resources management. The E-learning Nugget Briefs was designed to present the overall training programme carried out through e-nuggets, presenting the project approach and the training structure. In addition, a short description of each module is included, to illustrate tools and methodologies that will be addressed in each session.
