Objectives/Expected Outcomes
Its objective is to « implement urgent and priority interventions that will promote enhanced adaptive capacity of the agricultural sector to address the additional risks posed by climate change”.
The expected outcomes are:• Resilience of food production systems and/or food insecure communities enhanced in the face of climate change.• Institutional capacity of the agricultural and water sector enhanced, including information and extension services to respond to climate change, including variability.• Lessons learned and knowledge management component established.

Improved seeds• Training of 500 producers on types
of seeds (millet, sorghum, cowpeas) that are more resistant to droughts.
• More than 8000 farmers use these types in 8 municipalities through a snowball effect.
• Yield: 800-1200 kg vs 300-400kg for traditional seeds

Innovative Approach
A comprehensive approach to building resilience and responding to current & urgent needs as well as plan for CC impacts
• Vulnerability assessment and participatory approach in the design and implementation
• Addressing priority needs as identified by the communities• Long-term capacity building with various trainings and setting
up of local management committees• Spill over effect : the activities and effects of the project have
been conducted and felt outside of the areas of intervention• Setting up of climate information system (community radios)• Climate mainstreaming into local development planning

Lessons Learnt
• Effective engagement of local municipalities and communities in the implementation, « learning by doing» approach, dialogue and adaptive management make it possible to implement develop activities despite the insecurity and eco-systemic fragility context.
• Cash for work l abour intensive work activities and cereal and animal feed banks contribute to building the capacities of vulnerable groups with regards to access to food security
• Degraded land recuperation and restoration of degraded ecosystem help reduce rural exodus.
• Community based adaptation approaches require time to build long term capacities and ensure the sustainability of actions.

Prospects
• Phase 2: Focus on gaps (strengthening gender, lessons learnt and knowledge management, access to water, agricultural product transformation and sales capacities)
• Scaling-up in the priority region of Maradi (project document submitted to GEF) based on the best practices and lessons learnt and building on the spill over effect. Links with existing projects to strengthen the community based adaptation approach (Care ALP)
• Plans to scale up in 56 (1/5) of the cities in Niger
