Agro-climate and environmental conservation
GCI is dedicated to improve Agro-climate and Environmental Conservation, by promoting sustainable agricultural practices and environmental protection. The main aim of this focus is to raise awareness about the importance of conserving natural resources and addressing climate change, particularly at the grassroots level.
Here are key activities under this focus:
- Community Awareness: GCI conducts educational campaigns and workshops to inform local communities about the importance of environmental conservation. This includes promoting the sustainable use of natural resources like water, soil, and forests.
- Sustainable and Smart Agricultural Practices: GCI encourages the adoption of eco-friendly agricultural methods, such as organic farming, crop rotation, and agroforestry. These practices help reduce the environmental impact of farming while improving crop yield and resilience to climate change.
- Reforestation and afforestation: The organization is likely involved in tree-planting initiatives to combat deforestation, improve air quality, and enhance biodiversity in local ecosystems.
- Climate Change Adaptation: GCI helps local communities, especially farmers, adapt to the effects of climate change. This includes providing training on drought-resistant crops, water conservation techniques, and other climate-smart agriculture practices.
- Advocacy for policy change: GCI also works to advocate for policies that support environmental protection and sustainable agricultural development at the local and national levels.
