| dc.description | As with many other countries, Angola is increasingly facing the effects of climate change. In southern regions, the country experienced one of the most severe droughts of the last 40 years. Where droughts were regularly interspersed with years of rain, above average rainfall was being registered, resulting in flooding. Family farming, the main livelihood in rural areas of the country, is heavily reliant on rainfall and farmers are constantly losing resources. The capacity of fertile soils to retain water is decreasing, soil use is often not sustainable, and farmers are adopting charcoal production as an alternative-income generation activity, which is aggravating climate change conditions. In view of this, the project aimed to mainstream climate change adaptation (CCA)/sustainable land management (SLM) into national policy, and at provincial and rural level, and to promote ecofriendly and sustainable practices by extension services and community farmers groups, to strengthen the climate resilience of agropastoral production systems in key vulnerable areas in four Angolan provinces, Bié, Huambo, Malanje and Huila. | |
