About LISTEN
LISTEN is a 3.6 million Euro project being implemented for 3.5 years (from October 2020 to March 2024) by SNV, in partnership with Frontier Counties Development Council (FCDC) and Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA).
The project seeks to contribute to strengthened resilience to climate change by increasing food, nutrition, and water security in Laikipia, Isiolo, and Samburu counties of Kenya. The overall project goal is to contribute to strengthened resilience to climatechange by increasing food, nutrition, and water security in selected ASAL counties of Laikipia, Isiolo and Samburu in Kenya.
The agricultural sector is a key driver of economic and social development in Kenya.
Climate change projections for East Africa (Kenya in particular) show increasing temperatures, reduced rainfall, seasonal shifts and more frequent climate shocks (droughts and floods).
A rapidly growing population however, provides an urgent demand, but the sector is plagued with low productivity especially of food crops due to many factors: increasing urbanisation and subdivision of high and medium potential land, limited access to finance and quality inputs, low capacities of national institutions to deliver for the sector and an over reliance on rain fed agriculture which is hampered by climate change.
ASAL regions cover more than 80% of Kenya’s land area and are home to 35% of the population (17 million people).
