In the West Africa and Sahel region, millions of vulnerable people who depend on the production, marketing and consumption of crops, livestock, fish, forests and other natural resources are facing recurrent disasters and crises.

It aims to illustrate the project activities’ positive impacts on food security, income and nutrition among beneficiaries.
