In the wake of the escalating climate crisis, small-scale farmers across Sub-Saharan Africa face unpredictable weather patterns that threaten their yields, food security, and livelihoods. To address these challenges, the Enhancing Climate Change Resilience in East Africa (ECREA) project is working to empower farmers with Weather and Climate Information Services (WCIS) and agro-advisories.
The ECREA project is funded by the UK Government’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) through the WISER Office and it is implemented through the Climate Action lever of the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT. ECREA is a collaborative initiative that brings together key partners to ensure that climate information reaches the farmers who need it most.
