Agricultural Development: Agricultural Production Intensification and Vulnerability Reduction Project

General

The project¿s overall objective is to improve the living conditions and climate resilience of rural populations in Burundi¿s central plateau through an integrated land management approach involving the optimal use of natural resources tailored to growing population pressure. The development objective is the sustainable growth of agricultural productivity and production and the diversification of economic opportunities in rural areas. This will be achieved by: (i) strengthening of the capacities and means of production of small-scale farmers;(ii) the adoption of climate-resilient production systems by small-scale farmers;(iii) optimal participatory management of natural resources in the hills; (iv) support for grassroots community organizations, especially cooperatives, through the value-enhancement and marketing of their products; (v) the promotion of economic activities to boost the income of small-scale farmers.

Scaling Up Fertilizer Micro-Dosing and Indigenous Vegetable Production and Utilization in West Africa (CIFSRF

General

Poor soil fertility and land degradation result in low production yields and quality for indigenous vegetables in West Africa. This project will address the challenges to improve vegetable production through fertilizer innovations. Increasing vegetable yields and quality This project will build on earlier research funded by the Canadian International Food Security Research Fund (CIFSRF), a program of IDRC undertaken with the financial support of the Government of Canada provided through Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada. Two earlier projects generated promising results to improve food security in West Africa for poor families. Using innovations developed in this earlier work, researchers will speed up adoption of innovative approaches that will use cost-saving fertilizer micro-dosing and better water management to improve indigenous vegetable production in Nigeria and Benin. The project team will develop, test, and deploy two different models (Innovations Platform and Satellite Dissemination Approach) that will reach and benefit more farmers with sustainable vegetable production and marketing approaches. They will connect women-led cooperatives and youth groups to the private sector and business organizations, directly reaching more than 255,000 households. The team's work will involve further developing commercial seed production, postharvest handling, and value chains. They will also strengthen producer groups. Project leadership A consortium of five universities in Canada, Benin, and Nigeria will lead the project. They will mobilize at least 20 private sector partners and government agencies to build small and medium vegetable and fertilizer businesses. Their work will serve to double the income of approximately one million farmers in West Africa along the vegetable value chain.

GFI Increasing DRM by Promoting Corporate, Natural Resource and Professional Integrity Belize

General

Media Inistitute of the Caribbean (MIC) will design multi-session trainings for journalists and civil society on investigating corruption and IFFs. The trainings will include cross-cutting topics such as “Understanding Beneficial Ownership and the Impact on Anti Money Laundering (AMT) /Combating the Financing of Terrorism(CFT) and “Exploitation of Natural Rsources—Loopholes Which Allow for Corrupt Practices,” as well as topics directed to journalists, such as “The Storyboard for Corruption Stories” and “Digital Security for Journalists.” In addition, they will create a network to encourage information sharing along with establishing a preliminary database of resources and sources for journalists that complete the training program. As part of the planning for the training sessions, they will contribute to the design and production of policy resources for improving corporate and land ownership as well as professional integrity. MIC will also take part in stakeholder engagement. Friends for Conservation and Development ( FCD) works to increase DRM through greater natural resource and trade integrity. This will marry FCD’s expertise on conservation and natural resources with GFI’s expertise on integrity, transparency, and IFFs. FCD will leverage their on-the-ground presence, they manage Belize’s largest national park, past research of issues such as illegal logging and wildlife trafficking, and strong relationship with the government and civil society. FCD has taken the lead on selecting the research areas and will lead on project design and implementation. They will i lending their expertise on natural resources to the design of policy resources and engagement
