Project Detail |
Building Equitable Climate-Resilient African Bean and Insect Sectors (BRAINS) aims to foster low-carbon, climate-resilient systems and economies in the bean and insect corridors across 15 Sub-Saharan African countries. Project activities include: (1) enhancing climate resilience more equitably among women and youth farmers and value chain actors, (2) bringing to scale the adoption of climate-smart agriculture technologies boosting climate resilience across targeted production systems, and (3) building a pipeline of enterprises investing in carbon-neutral, climate-resilient, and gender-responsive business development aligning with emerging climate finance sector goals. The project directly benefits 10 million people (women and girls represent 60%) and 50 million people indirectly. |
