Stakeholders in the Nabdam District have called for the expansion of a two-year indigenous land restoration project, dubbed "Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) Heritage." The project, implemented by World Vision Ghana and the Centre for Community Development Initiatives (CODI) with funding from the European Union, aims to restore 1,500 hectares of degraded land and improve climate resilience among farming communities.
The stakeholders, including the heads of departments of the District Assembly and beneficiary communities, urge the expansion of the project alongside interventions in irrigation, dry-season farming, fish farming, and agro-processing. They believe that providing alternative livelihood opportunities is critical to reducing communities' dependence on activities that contribute to environmental degradation, particularly during the dry season.
