Extension Support for Climate Adaptation and Mitigation

GFRAS is thrilled to introduce a new NELK module on "Extension Support for Climate Adaptation and Mitigation". This module is designed to empower advisors to become agents of change in the fight against climate change. It will cover essential strategies and tools to help communities not only understand the impacts of climate change but also adapt their practices to mitigate these effects.
