The Savannah Women Integrated Development Agency (SWIDA-GH), a non-governmental organisation (NGO) based in the Northern Region, has organised capacity building workshop for selected farmer groups in the Savelugu Municipality of the Northern Region on bushfire prevention mechanisms.
The workshop sought to equip participants with the necessary strategies and procedures in preventing and dealing with possible bushfires on their farms as means to enhancing sustainable agriculture in the Municipality.
It was part of the SWIDA-GH's "Women Climate Justice Solutions in Agriculture Project", that seeks to promote climate change issues among women in agriculture, and also build their capacities to overcome challenges associated with climate change to boost their agricultural production.
