As part of efforts to ensure sustainability and scalability of efforts to build capacity in Tanzania to respond to the challenges posed by climate change to agriculture, IITA organized a series of awareness creation sessions for councilors and other district-level planners on climate-smart agriculture (CSA) planning and budgeting.
The team from the USAID-funded Building Capacity for Resilient Food Security project specifically met District Council committee members in charge of finance and planning, incorporating representatives from other committees. The sessions were well received by the councilors, who noted the importance of addressing the challenges posed by climate change to agriculture and other economic development activities. The councilors agreed to take the lead to champion CSA in their respective districts and plan and allocate budgets for CSA activities.
