Resume

IAS Kenya has been actively involved in agriculture, disaster risk reduction and resilience programming in the semi-arid region of Tharaka for over 13 years. With remarkable progress and valuable lessons learned, the organization is now proposing a climate change adaptation approach to improve food security and livelihoods in the area. The aim is to empower the communities of Tharaka to adopt adaptive practices and enable IAS Kenya to establish a long-term partnership with the government and other stakeholders on Climate Change Adaption. This project not only aims to increase the self-sufficiency and food security of farmers, but also serves as a piloting and piloting and capacity-building exercise for IAS Kenya and its partners to play a vital role in future climate change adaptation efforts.
