Implementing Agency: UNDP

SCCF Grant: $960,000

The aim of the project is to reduce drought vulnerability in farming and pastoral communities by guaranteeing water supply and by training the communities to grow drought-resistant crops, like sweet potato, cassava or sorghum. The project sites, Mbala-vala, Nhanguenha, Nalazi and Chivonguene communities, belong to the semi-arid regions of the Limpopo River Basin. These are among the poorest and most drought-prone areas of the country.
