STRENGTHENING RURAL LIVELIHOODS AND RESILIENCE TO
CLIMATE CHANGE IN AFRICA
In a Nutshell
GALILEO aims to promote agroforestry as leverage to significantly improve agricultural, household, and climate change adaptation and mitigation performances and to enhance biodiversity in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).
We build upon 8 agroforestry Living Labs (LLs: local scale and actors), 4 national and 1 regional Innovation Platforms (IPs), set up across 4 SSA countries. Our LLs are set in semi-arid zones of Senegal and Kenya and normally humid but drought-prone zones of Ghana and Cameroon thus, comparing and covering a large range of SSA conditions.
Agroforestry Living Labs (LLs):
GALILEO EU-AU project
The overall objective of GALILEO is to rely on genuine Multi-Actor Approaches (MAA) to co-develop context-specific, people-centered agroforestry innovations in representative agro-pastoral, agroforestry, and agro-silvo-pastoral systems (AFSPs) from Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The aim is to promote agroforestry as leverage to significantly improve agricultural, household, and climate change adaptation and mitigation performances and to enhance biodiversity in SSA.
