SAHEL - TOGO

The Tambimong Ogaro Rural Animation Center (CARTO)  was created in 1982. The main objectives of the current program is to improve food security in the Savannah region and strengthen the livelihood of beneficiary families by popularising sustainable agricultural practices adapted to climate change and soil impoverishment, and by promoting the emergence of women and men leaders in their environment.

The program in the CPP focuses on the following activities:

• Production of educational films on the themes of the effects of climate change, adaptation measures: restoration and maintenance of soil fertility (agroforestry, organic fertilizers, natural pesticides), farmer seeds
• Training sessions (practical and theoretical) on speculative crops, agro-ecological practices and environmental protection will be organised for producers. To do this, the creation of 8 field schools will be supported.
• The exchange of experience between peers will be encouraged within the framework of the program with visits to producers in Togo, but also in the other Sahel countries implementing the program.

Togo also participates in the transversal activities of the Agro-ecology Program for the Sahel at the regional level through networking for the exchange of experiences, training, valorisation of knowledge, communication and advocacy on the agro-ecological transition.
