Farm Africa helps smallholder farmers across eastern Africa to implement climate-smart agricultural practices to grow and sell more, while protecting the environment for generations to come.
Farm Africa also works tirelessly to close the gender gap by prioritising support for female smallholder farmers, who are often most vulnerable to the effects of climate change while simultaneously being left out of climate change decision-making processes.”
