Monitoring and Evaluating Agriculture, Food Security and Nutrition Programs Training (Virtually and Onsite)

Appleton Resort Sports, Road off Mvuli Road, Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya

Food security is paramount in any particular nation and plays a major role towards the achievement of the other sustainable development goals; that is poverty eradication, good health and well-being, decent work and further towards economic growth goals. Rural development not only plays a major role in eradicating poverty by providing alternative sources of livelihoods but also significantly contributes to agricultural growth which in turn contributes to food security. This training, therefore, aims at aiding personnel in the agricultural sector in; monitoring and evaluating of rural development; assessing their impact, and data management and analysis and its interpretation for policy making for development agenda.

Disaster Risk Reduction and Management, Mitigation, And Response Training November

Appleton Resort Sports, Road off Mvuli Road, Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya

Developing countries’ disaster profiles are dominated by droughts, fires, floods, technological accidents, diseases and epidemics that disrupt people’s livelihoods, destroy the infrastructure, divert planned use of resources, interrupt economic activities and retard development. In addition to this, a fast-tracked pace of development in the developing world has brought with it the perils of precarious living, pressures on non-renewable resources, densely populated spaces that are unplanned, unsafe and risky and environmental degradation among others. As a consequence, the frequency of disasters such as earthquakes, floods, cyclones, landslides, droughts, and fire outbreaks has gone up. Something needs to be done.

Community Based Climate Change Adaptation & Resilience (Virtual and Onsite)

Appleton Resort Sports, Road off Mvuli Road, Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya

Climate change (CC) threatens progress on development particularly in developing countries because they have the least capacity to cope. Adaptation to climate change in these countries is therefore critical. These adjustments in response to the negative impacts of climate change are necessary as they are locally focused and inexpensive. Adaptation efforts based at the local level address exposure of vulnerable recipients to the adverse impacts of climate change. Community-based climate change adaptation identifies and facilitates local development activities that strengthen the capacity of local people to adapt to the capricious climate. This approach employs participatory processes and disaster risk reduction.
