Overall targets
Climate change interventions are integrated into development and governance processes and addressed locally through public and private investments enhancing sustainable livelihoods of selected target groups in Mozambique, Kenya and Tanzania.
Immediate targets
1. Selected communities have become more resilient to direct and indirect effects of climate change through sustainable livelihoods interventions. Collaborations with local authorities and private sector actors on tackling challenges within environmental issues and local development agendas have attracted further public and private investments. 2. Country consortiums have established innovative and constructive internal and external relationships demonstrating a clear ability to function as change agents and perform productive advocacy work building on the PANT and SDG principles that leads to increasing inclinations of authorities to support environmental and climate change adaptation initiatives with an effect at community levels.

Resume
The programme will, over a four-year period, work on climate adaptation measures at decentralized levels in Mozambique, Kenya and Tanzania. The primary target groups are about 55,000 smallholder farmers and natural resource managers, local authorities, institutions and 16 different small and medium-sized civil society organizations. Civil society organizations will work together in three country consortia to ensure that authorities more effectively enforce current legislation and, together with citizens and authorities, find and document effective climate change mitigation and adaptation measures in cultivated fields, in utilized forest areas and around homesteads. The efforts will primarily take place in rural areas where both agricultural practices and natural resource management methods are under pressure. Poor governance, inadequate management of resources, rising population pressure and, more recently, unpredictable weather systems, are the framework under which the programme must function and the primary reasons why rural populations have difficulty breaking out of elementary poverty.
