Description

project is in line with OSS 2 ‘End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture’ and OECD-DAC standards 41010 - Environmental Policy and Administrative Management and 43071 - Food Security Policy and Administrative Management. For decades Tanzania has also been suffering the effects of climate change, in particular recurring droughts and floods, which have caused devastating impacts on the agriculture, water and energy sectors. In order to meet the need of Tanzania's agrifood sector to have the capacity to adapt to climate change, the Lombardy Region has engaged excellences of the Lombardy system including universities, private business associations and public bodies, and OSC, in partnership with SAGCOT (Southern Agricultural Growth Corridor of Tanzania) and various local stakeholders to ensure the alignment of the intervention with national strategies for the agrifood sector and climate change adaptation policies, favouring synergy and complementarity with Italian cooperation initiatives. Region Lombardy proposes capacity building activities at institutional and university level for effective planning and management of climate change adaptation strategies in the agrifood sector (R1), develop participatory governance tools to strengthen the resilience of food systems and the agricultural sector in the Arusha region (R2) and Pemba Island (R3). The Arusha Region and Pemba Island are the target areas for the implementation of the project in which the Region's partners have long-term experience and good relations with local institutions. At the academic level, exchanges of expertise are planned between the University of Milan, the University of Milan Bicocca, the University of Brescia and Tanzanian universities and institutions, namely the University of Zanzibar and the Nelson Mandela African Institution of Science and Technology of Arusha. In coherence with the needs identified in the need assessment and in the dialogue with the Tanzanian institutional partner, support will be provided for the definition of climate change adaptation plans with a focus on the sustainable use of compost and the consequences of animal farming in agricultural and food systems. Under R2, stakeholders in the Arusha Region will be supported in the development of a sustainable food production model and the improvement of food governance through the Italian partners Regional Agency for Agricultural and Forestry Services (ERSAF) and the Institute for International Economic Cooperation (ICEI). With regard to the island of Pemba, R3 provides for training and awareness-raising activities for stakeholders and local communities on sustainable, regenerative and climate change resilient agriculture, integrated management of natural resources and reuse of waste and food waste in view of the circular economy to activate both a participatory spatial planning process and research and development activities at an academic level; technical support will also be provided to small local producers thanks to the presence of the Ivo de Carneri Foundation and the Seva for Africa Association. ANCI Lombardia will have the important role of fostering territorial partnerships between Lombardy municipalities and Tanzanian territorial authorities. read more close
