In West Africa, sustainable agricultural development initiatives aim to strengthen the resilience of rural communities by providing training in environmentally friendly agricultural techniques, improving access to agricultural inputs, and encouraging crop diversification.
Efforts also include access to markets through cooperatives and digital platforms, the use of technological innovations to mitigate the impacts of climatic hazards, institutional support for sustainable agriculture, and the involvement of women and youth. These strategies aim to improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers, reduce rural poverty, and increase long-term food security.
