Adapting access to agro-pastoral resources in a context of mobility and climate change for pastoral farming in Chad (ACCEPT)
Last update: 27 February 2023
Project description
The aim of the ACCEPT project is to contribute to increasing the resilience of pastoralists and agropastoralists in the face of climate change, by adapting access to agropastoral resources in a context of mobility and climate change and co-designing innovations for pastoralists and agropastoralists in Chad. Specifically, the first goal of the project is to update and share knowledge on adaptations to climate change in pastoral and agropastoral systems. To achieve the expected impacts, the project will develop action research through a partnership approach that ensures synergies between the respective skills of the consortium members, by mobilising their know-how in the field of research and development. The expected results are the following:
- knowledge on practices concerning adaptation to climate change in pastoral and agropastoral systems will be updated and shared;
- innovations for better access to agropastoral resources and adaptation will be co-designed, tested, evaluated and disseminated;
- new decision support tools for better prevention and management of conflict risks will be co-designed with the stakeholders, then developed and tested.
