This service is the outcome of a discussion held during the 2018 West Africa Regional Conference on Land Cover Land Use, at which SERVIR West Africa established the West Africa Land Cover Task Force.
This service supports Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR), is a low-cost land restoration technique used to combat poverty, hunger, and Sahara desert encroachments amongst low-income farmers by increasing ecosystem services; and resilience to climate extremes.
This fact sheet provides and overview SERVIR West Africa phase 2 implementation, which includes a consortium of seven regional institutions in Burkina Faso, Ghana, Niger, Nigeria, Mali and Senegal.
Between 2018 and 2021, SERVIR HKH trained 410 women in “Empowering women in GIT” to bridge the technology and gender gap in the region. Some of the key outcomes of these trainings are summarized in this report.
Since 2018, SERVIR has conducted 12 training programs for young and early-career women in geospatial information technology (GIT), reaching 1,490 women across the region. The training focuses on using technologies to collect, store, analyze, and visualize spatial or geographic data about observing the Earth’s surface and human activity. Participants learn about key concepts and how to use applications that depend on EO data and GIT.
