In the presence of the Minister of Gender Promotion, the Minister of the Environment, and UNDP’s Resident Representative, the community of Idjikoundzi, in Dimani launched the project “Strengthening the resilience of agricultural systems and intelligent value chains in the face of the climate”. This project aims to increase the climate resilience of the main agricultural value chains through innovation, diversification and capacity building.

This project, financially supported by the Global Environment Facility (WEF) and implemented with the financial and technical support of the UNDP, represents an important step in the adaptation of the Comorian agricultural sector to climate challenges. With a budget of 10 million dollars, it will be deployed throughout the national territory, with particular attention to the Rural Centers for Economic Development (CRDE) of Sidjou, Cembenoi and Diboini (Ngazidja), Mimbani and Mledjele (Mwali), as well as Mramani, Bambao Mtsanga and Pomoni (Ndzouani).

UNDP’s Resident Representative stressed the urgency of such initiatives in the face of a global context of growing climate crises. He also highlighted the centrality of agriculture in the Comorian economy and the importance of supporting rural communities, particularly vulnerable, by introducing innovative and sustainable agricultural practices.
