The Training

Learning by doing, then teaching

CA, partner CBOs and the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources ran the training for CREMA beneficiaries across Juaboso and Enchi.

A Participatory, Training-of-Trainers (ToT) approach encouraged farmers to share ideas and experiences — so the knowledge would spread beyond the room. Each livelihood was taught in two parts: a lecture on the key terms and concepts, followed by small-group, hands-on demonstration.
