Regreening for the Future

The Regreening for the Future project aims to learn how the integration of adaptation pathways within a community-led regreening model could enhance the capacity of communities in Kenya and the East Africa region. Land degradation, driven by inappropriate management in agricultural lands and climate change are contributing to food inequality, reduced crop and livestock productivity, reduced quantity and quality of freshwater, increased occurrence and severity of natural hazards and loss of cultural values among other impacts. The community-led regreening model developing in this project will focus on how the combination of landscape restoration with associated climate-smart agriculture and livelihood improvements and be integrated together through the co-creation of pathways. The pathways will take into consideration both present and future climate risks, with the outcome of supporting communities to continuously adapt to climate change long into the future, improving livelihoods and climate resilience.
