Integrated & Climate Smart Innovations for Agro-Pastoralist Economies and Landscapes in Kenya - ASALs

The Integrated & Climate Smart Innovations for Agro-Pastoralist Economies and Landscapes in Kenya’s ASAL is a three-year project premised on building resilience and improving the livelihoods of local communities through improved livestock feeding strategies in Kajiado, Taita Taveta and Narok. Innovations in research are disseminated through capacity-building models targeting communities, small and medium enterprises, county governments, and community-based organizations. In addition, multi-stakeholder platforms are used to enhance communication, joint planning, and implementation.

Work Packages

Increased resilience of agro-pastoralists and private sector actors against climate shocks by upscaling of appropriate grazing and feeding innovations.

The project activities are aligned to the EU’s Development of Smart Innovation through Research in Agriculture (DeSIRA) and embeds Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) approaches. In addition, the interventions align to the Netherlands government (DGIS) global in indicators by virtue of the project being anchored on the delegated corporation mechanism between the European Union and member states. The project efforts, therefore, aim to address key challenges that relate to sufficient quality livestock feed, sustainable feeding technologies, degraded rangelands, private sector participation in ASALs, enabling policy environment, bridge research-dissemination gap.
