Farm Africa - Participatory management of forest and rangeland

Farm Africa applies participatory forest and rangeland management techniques to advance the sustainable use of natural resources. They partner with different organisations to deliver projects in local communities. One of their projects is to develop a technical curriculum on regenerative agriculture and business management for village-based advisors. They have also created trained groups of farmers to build new ridges and Zai pits for capturing rainwater. It is their aim to work through these groups to advance knowledge to community members.

Additional information

This case study has been created as part of Footprints Africa's work to build a comprehensive open-source database of circular economy initiatives in Africa. We are doing this in collaboration with the African Circular Economy Network (ACEN), as part of our programme to support the circular economy transition in Africa.
