Major new Development and Peace (D&P) project launched in the Sahel Region of Africa After months of planning, studies and consultations involving local partners and communities, D&P launched a major food security project in Africa’s Sahel region. Activities under the SANC2S project, funded by Global Affairs Canada, began in March 2022.
In Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, the project has already trained 502 peasant farmers, including 287 women, in composting and organic fertilizer usage. Sixty delegates from farmers’ organizations and food processing units strengthened their capacity for innovation and made new business contacts at a national agricultural exchange in Burkina Faso.
