This first workshop will present new results on approaches to boost poor households’ resilience in the wake of climate change.
It will showcase how Adaptive Social Protection Programming in the Sahel (with IDA financing) promotes economic inclusion and livelihood diversification. It will also discuss how WFP resilience programming can improve food security and agricultural livelihoods.
Following these two cases, a roundtable between government and international - representatives will discuss implications for policymaking.
