Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Resilience Capacity of World Vision Iraq

World Vision Zambia livelihood strategy is well aligned to the Government’s Seventh National Development (SNDP), Vision 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals. World Vision Zambia is working with 48,140 households (240,700 people) using innovative development strategies to improve household resilience and livelihood.

In 2021, 79.2% of Kenya’s adult population had bank accounts, a significant increase from 42.34% in 2011. However, rural communities without access to banking services still struggle to save for basic needs. To address this, World Vision's Central Rift Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration Scale Up Project (CRIFSUP), funded by ANCP, uses the Savings for Transformation (S4T) model to build household resilience. Isaac Chelal from Nakuru County exemplifies success, starting a watermelon business through his involvement with S4T and the Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) approach.

Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) is a sustainable land restoration technique that depends on active management of bushlands, tree stumps and/or seeds that have self-germinated from the soil, allowing them to grow into productive trees. The FMNR approach provides a lowcost, low-risk method for restoration of degraded landscapes while supplying farmers with valuable economic, social and environmental benefits. This publication records the experiences of participants who have implemented the FMNR approach through World Vision’s CRIFSUP Project. From their encounters, you will notice how this sustainable low-cost approach has a holistic impact on women, men, children and the community at large. Additionally, the project trains participants on other complementary components to maximise on benefits achieved from practicing FMNR. These complementary components include: Savings for Transformation (S4T), Citizen Voice and Action (CVA), Local Value Chain Development (LVCD), Empowered Worldview (EWV), energy-saving technologies, soil and water conservation, and Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA).
