Objective / Goal The subprogramme main goal is to support women and men in rural households in Kenya, Sri Lanka and Zambia to practice environmentally-friendly and climate-adaptive agricultural and land use practices. Specifically, the project aims at facilitating evidence-based green and inclusive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic through approaches that combine social protection with complementary service provision (extension support, early warning and e-extension).
Impact

The subprogramme supported three specific outputs:

Output 1: Increased access to integrated services for environmentally-friendly and climate-adaptive agricultural and land use practices among female and male vulnerable small-scale producers.

Output 2. Increased capacity of government staff at national and sub-national levels to design and implement integrated, gender-sensitive, and multi-sectoral green recovery programmes in rural areas. 

Output 3: Increased evidence on the impact, including gendered impact, and effectiveness of integrating social protection with complementary services to scale up inclusive and green development in rural areas and integrated into global and national policy discussions.
