The project ‘Reinforcing the resilience of poor rural communities in the face of food insecurity, poverty and climate change through on-farm conservation of local agrobiodiversity’ will: investigate the use of neglected and underutilized species in increasing the adaptation and resilience of production systems in the face of climate change; examine the role of men and women farmers in conservation practices; develop participatory monitoring systems for local agrobiodiversity; and strengthen on farm conservation and the role of custodian farmers.
