SustainMe works with underprivileged women and families, empowering them to improve their livelihoods, adapt to climate change, and enhance food security. Vulnerable women farmers often face challenges such as low agricultural productivity, climate-related crop loss, and limited access to sustainable farming practices.

The Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) Coordinator will play a key role in promoting sustainable, climate-resilient farming practices among women farmers. The volunteer will provide training, conduct field visits, create awareness on climate-smart agriculture, and develop activities that strengthen the resilience of women-led farms, improve soil health, and increase agricultural productivity.

Promote and Lead Climate Smart Agriculture Practices; Provide training and sensitization sessions to women farmers on sustainable and climate-resilient agricultural practices.

Conduct Field Visits and Provide Technical Support; Visit women farmers’ fields to monitor progress and provide guidance on climate-smart techniques and Offer advice on soil management, water conservation, crop diversification, and organic farming practices.

Develop and Implement Climate-Smart Activities; Plan and execute initiatives such as demonstration plots, community gardens, and sustainable crop trials. Introduce women farmers to tools and technologies that reduce climate risks and increase yields.

Raise Awareness on Climate Change and Agriculture; Conduct community workshops to educate women on the links between climate change, agriculture, and livelihoods. Use campaigns and local media to spread knowledge about sustainable agriculture and soil protection.

Document and Report Activities; Keep records of training sessions, field visits, and the adoption of climate-smart practices. Prepare reports highlighting the impact of CSA activities on women farmers’ livelihoods and resilience.

Organize Community Engagement Events; Plan and lead events such as farmer field days, awareness marches, or agricultural fairs to share best practices and success stories. Encourage women to voice their experiences and challenges in adopting sustainable farming practices.

Ensure Access to Resources for Women Farmers. Help women farmers access seeds, fertilizers, tools, and financial support for climate-resilient agriculture. Link women farmers to local institutions providing agricultural training, inputs, and climate adaptation resources.
