| description | Through a CCAFS-led effort to scale up participatory training on climate services in Rwanda, around 105,000 Rwandan farmers were trained on accessing, understanding and using climate services. The approach involved training trainers, filling gaps in climate service records and developing online map tools.
Each trained farmer shared their new knowledge with approx. 13 of their peers. Moreover, 85% of farmers participating in the training changed their practices thereafter. In May 2018, the project received the first Climate Smart Agriculture Project of the Year Award. |
