The Earth observation and environmental sensing for climate-smart sustainable agropastoral ecosystem transformation in East Africa - ESSA project aims to contribute to the pastoralist households’ transition towards climate-smart agropastoral systems in Ethiopia and Kenya.
The ESSA project is funded by the DeSIRA programme of the European Union in 2020-2024. The project aims to contribute to the pastoralist households' transition towards climate-smart agropastoral systems in Ethiopia and Kenya by improving understanding of the dynamics of and interlinkages between tropical upland forest cover and semi-arid lowland landscapes, and by providing new knowledge on the multifunctionality of agropastoral landscapes through a system-wide view of food and nutrition security, diversified livelihoods and ecosystem sustainability leading to improvements.
