Donkeys' Welfare Project

1. Project title

Support community livelihoods by promoting the welfare of donkeys in Singida and Iringa regions.

2. Objectives

Improve achievement of the overall objective of improving rural livelihoods in the target areas through the integration of donkey promotion activities alongside ongoing interventions with farming communities taking into account donkeys that contribute significantly to the economic and social well-being of owners and surrounding communities through employment. The project helps to strengthen the livelihoods of local communities in 15 villages through the promotion of donkey welfare.

  • Among others, the objectives of the project are to ensure: Improvement of community capacity for better ownership of the five freedoms of donkeys;
  • Develop income-generating activities and gender promotion activities that can influence the welfare of equines;
  • Donkey welfare issues Institutionalized at district and village level;
  • The government and communities in Tanzania are taking action to end the trade in donkey skins in Tanzania.

3. Beneficiaries

The project aims to directly reach 457 (159F) owners and users of donkeys through group intervention in target communities who are owners and users of donkeys to join groups formed of volunteers through its intervention .

4. Achievement area

The project is implemented in villages in four districts of Iringa, Singida, Kondoa and Chemba District Councils, namely 5 villages in Iringa, 6 villages in Singida, 2 villages in Chemba and 2 villages in Kondoa District Council.

5. Summary of the project

Supporting community livelihoods by promoting the welfare of donkeys in the Singida and Iringa regions is a one-year project funded by Brooke East Africa and launched in 2018 (renewing annually). According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the global population of donkeys is estimated at 44 million. The role of the donkey depends on the communities in which it lives and works. Usually his traditional role includes riding, plowing, and cart-riding, with fewer roles in entertainment and food production.
Evidence collected during the study (baseline) indicated that donkeys contribute directly and indirectly to the livelihoods of people in most semi-arid areas of Tanzania, where they are used as draft animals in the agriculture and freight transport. The study shows that women save time (more than 4 hours to less than 2 hours) and energy considerably by using donkeys for domestic services; the time saved is alternately devoted to other family care services. On the other hand, the donkey sub-sector informally provides jobs for young people which are commonly used to herd the animals while providing services such as water, transportation of firewood goods, etc. Young people receive an average of 5,000 Tsh/day to lead the donkey.

ABCD2 project

Projet ABCD-Un élève un arbre COP28

1. Project title

Supporting the scaling-up of community experiences and citizen monitoring of public policies in response to climate change in sub-Saharan Africa (ABCD 2 project)

2. Summary

The project to scale up community experiences and dynamics of citizen monitoring of public policies in the face of climate change in sub-Saharan Africa is the continuation of an initial project to capitalize on these experiences.

In fact, in 2022, with funding from the Basque Agency for Development Cooperation (ABCD), Inades-Formation carried out the project “Study-capitalization of best practices in the face of the challenges of climate change and local governance in sub-Saharan Africa “This project capitalized on 50 experiences, including 31 on adaptation to climate change and 19 on governance, in 11 sub-Saharan African countries.

Based on the results of this pilot project, we have been able to identify and capitalize on some of the living realities of community efforts to combat the problems posed by climate change in Africa. They have been developed by a variety of players, including public services specializing in environmental and climate change management, civil society organizations and farmers’ organizations.

This second phase of the project, which will run for 30 months (2022-2024), aims to (i) scale up these good experiences developed by communities in African countries, in terms of adaptation, mitigation and resilience to climate change and of (ii) support the dynamics of citizen monitoring of the associated policy and regulatory frameworks.

3. General objective

Contribute to the fight against global warming, through the large-scale promotion of local experiences and concerted policy measures relating to adaptation, mitigation and resilience mechanisms for vulnerable populations, especially rural populations in sub-Saharan Africa.

4. Specific objectives

  • Scale up the good experiences developed by communities in African countries, in terms of adaptation, mitigation and resilience in the face of climate change.
  • Support the dynamics of citizen monitoring of related policy and regulatory frameworks

5. Completion period: June 2022 to November 2024

6. Project area

The project is being carried out in 11 countries: Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Chad, Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, DR Congo, Rwanda, Senegal, Tanzania and Togo.

ACF-AO project

WhatsApp Image 2023-08-24 at 15.13.12

1. Project title

Feminist Climate Action Project – West Africa ACF-AO

2. Summary

The “Feminist Climate Action in West Africa” project is being implemented in Côte d’Ivoire to contribute effectively to the resilience and fight against the effects of climate change by ecologically sensitive coastal and island communities, with a particular focus on rural women and young people.

It will build the capacity of communities, particularly women and young people, to implement strategies to protect biodiversity and ecosystems, notably through the adoption of agroecological practices, energy diversification and advocacy. It will strengthen the participation of rural women and young people in local governance of biodiversity and climate action.

Funded by Global Affairs Canada | Affaires mondiales Canada, the ACF AO project is taking place in Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea-Bissau, Senegal and Togo.

It is managed in Côte d’Ivoire by SUCO and Inades-Formation – Secrétariat Général.

3. Background

Climate change threatens to push nearly a million more Ivorians into extreme poverty, increase the risk of water stress, with more and more regions expected to see more than 10% of their population in water shortage, and increase the resurgence of air- and water-related diseases among susceptible populations (Nationally Determined Contributions, CDN-COTE D’IVOIRE, March 2022). According to the World Bank, by 2050, Côte d’Ivoire will face an average temperature rise of two degrees Celsius, greater rainfall variability and a 30 cm rise in sea level along the coast (World Bank, 2018a).

Climate change affects all development sectors. However, differences between men and women in their relationship with their environment, differences in the composition of economic sectors and unequal access to resources and decision-making will amplify the impacts of climate change on certain categories of the population, including women.

The “Feminist Climate Action in West Africa” project is a response to this reality.

4. General objective

Strengthening climate change adaptation by rural and indigenous women and young people in ecologically sensitive coastal and island regions of Côte d’Ivoire.

5. Specific objectives

  • Increase the influence of rural and indigenous women and young people in climate policy advocacy and in the governance of high-biodiversity ecosystems vulnerable to climate change.
  • Increase the adoption of nature-based solutions such as agroecology, ecosystem and biodiversity protection and restoration, for climate change adaptation, by rural and indigenous women and young people.
  • Strengthen the climate resilience of rural and indigenous women and young people through economic empowerment and energy diversification.

6. Completion date: 2023 - 2026

7. Target audience / beneficiaries: Young people 41% & Rural and indigenous women 59%.

8. Project area

Adiaké, Grand-Bassam, Jacqueville and Grand-Lahou.

9. Project actions
