Do you have an idea to scale up or scale out land restoration solutions? Share it with us!
Are you working on innovative solutions that promote sustainable food systems and green wall actions? The Knowledge for Green Wall Action (K4GGWA) Innovation Facility is now accepting applications!
Across the Sahel and the Great Green Wall region, powerful ideas like Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR), grazing management and land restoration have already changed lives. But these solutions need to reach more people, faster.
This facility is NOT looking for people who are just planting trees, expanding a business, or running a small local NGO, but ideas that help proven agricultural solutions spread widely—across villages, districts, or even countries.
Who can participate?
Anyone with an idea to scale up and/or scale out sustainable agricultural practices in one or more of these 11 Great Green Wall countries:
🇸🇳 Senegal, 🇲🇷 Mauritania, 🇲🇱 Mali, 🇧🇫 Burkina Faso, 🇳🇪 Niger, 🇳🇬 Nigeria, 🇹🇩 Chad, 🇸🇩 Sudan, 🇪🇹 Ethiopia, 🇪🇷 Eritrea, 🇩🇯 Djibouti.
What are we looking for?
ONLY ideas that help agricultural innovations reach more farmers and communities—not just in one village, but across a region or country.
Why participate?
The best ideas will receive recognition, visibility, and financial support from the K4GGWA Innovation Facility to grow and create impact.
Focus areas include (but are not limited to):
-
Agroecology and sustainable land use
-
Climate-smart agriculture
-
Biodiversity and ecosystem services
-
Sustainable value chains
-
Indigenous and local knowledge systems
Deadline to apply: 17 April 2025
