Niger: A Game Changer to Ensure Food Security
keyFrameImage
description
By 2050, the population of sub-Saharan Africa is likely to grow from 850 million to 1.7 billion people, representing almost 7% of the world’s population. These projections will result in an increased demand for food. This will be a huge challenge, especially in the context of variability and climate change. In Niger, the Climate-Smart Agriculture Support Project (PASEC) is helping strengthen farmers' resilience to climate change and increase agricultural productivity. Through the PASEC project, more than 100,000 farmers have learned better farming techniques, increasing their yields by 25%. https://www.worldbank.org/en/country/niger ABOUT THE WORLD BANK GROUP 🌐 The World Bank Group is one of the world’s largest sources of funding and knowledge for low-income countries. Its five institutions share a commitment to reducing poverty, increasing shared prosperity, and promoting sustainable development. http://www.worldbank.org FOLLOW US ► ► ► YouTube: http://wrld.bg/x4SB50x47Lu Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/worldbank Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/worldbank Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/worldbank LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-world-bank/ Events: http://live.worldbank.org Immersive Stories: https://www.worldbank.org/en/who-we-are/news/biggerpicture Newsletter: https://www.worldbank.org/en/newsletter-subscription
