Strengthening resilience to climate change of coastal communities in Togo (FSP)

About this project

The objective of the proposed project is to strengthen the resilience to climate change of coastal communities in Togo, through an integrated approach focusing on ecosystem-based adaptation and livelihoods. Four complementary components will support this objective. The project strategy will take an integrated approach at coastal landscape level (i.e. inland and coastline). Capacity-building of producer organizations in Component 1 (better understanding of climate change and resilience issues), is accompanied by measures to support landscape restoration and protect vulnerable ecosystems (Component 2) by communities through FFPO engagement to ensure their sustainability (providing incentives to conserve forest). Communities are further incentivized through livelihood diversification and building capacity (Component 3) for structuring supply chains and creating value for the producers, as well as improving product preservation and processing. Together these actions contribute well to the development of climate-resilient value chains, as these activities reduce post-harvest losses, especially those related to climatic conditions, and overall increase producers' adaptive capacities and enhance food security. Finally, Component 4 aims to encourage knowledge exchanges between actors, to disseminate lessons learnt through a range of tailored knowledge products and encourage learning fr
