In response to the postponement of the RFS Annual Workshop due to COVID-19 in March 2020, the PCU organised two Country Learning and Exchange Webinars in July to provide an opportunity for RFS country projects to give an update on project achievements and activities from the past year.
The second Country Project Learning and Exchange Webinar featured presentations from Malawi and Nigeria country projects.
Speakers provided a brief update on their projects followed by facilitated Q&A session to allow country project and RFS partners to exchange information and learn more about project activities.
The RFS Nigeria project is working to enhance long-term sustainability and resilience of food production systems in Nigeria and build greater community resilience to climate risks and other shocks that drive food insecurity. RFS Nigeria Project Coordinator, Abdullahi Garba Abubakar, gave a webinar presentation to RFS country project teams in July 2020 to provide an update on Nigeria country project activities, achievements, challenges and lessons learned. The presentation was followed by facilitated Q&A session to allow country project and RFS partners to exchange information and learn more about Nigeria country project activities.
The RFS Malawi project is working to enhance the provision of ecosystem services and improve the productivity and resilience of smallholder agricultural systems by addressing land degradation, loss of agro-biodiversity, and climate change adaptation and mitigation. RFS Malawi Project Coordinator, Munday Makoko, gave a webinar presentation to RFS country project teams in July 2020 to provide an update on Malawi country project activities, achievements, challenges and lessons learned.
