Description
Smallholder farmers in jamaica, facing intensifying climate conditions including droughts and hurricanes as well as agricultural pests, are looking to diversify their livelihoods. The economic downturn stemming from the covid-19 crisis exacerbates already high rates of poverty, migration, and food insecurity in this region. At the IAF, we support community-led approaches to promoting communities' resilience and food security. Our grantee partner sawyers local forest management committee benevolent society (sawyers lfmcbs) is expanding economic opportunities for jamaican farmers to support long-term food security. Sawyers lfmcbs will train communities in apiculture production, strengthen community awareness of climate and disaster resilience practices, and reinforce sustainable agroforestry practices. This grant is part of the IAF's broader covid-19 response strategy.
