On December 10, 2024, Solidar Suisse received a mission from the Brussels-based Enabel headquarters as part of the follow-up to the Climate Sahel Thematic Portfolio (PTCS). The mission was led by Marie HERMAN, an expert in sustainable food systems and PTCS focal point. The mission’s program included two highlights: a visit to a Rilgr\u00e9 project in Moackin, in the commune of Absouya, followed by an exchange with Solidar Suisse at the Rilgr\u00e9 Project Management Unit in Kaya. <\/p>\n\n

In Moackin, on the site of a field under CES\/DRS development, the mission from Enabel headquarters, accompanied by PCTS regional and Burkina managers and the Rilgr\u00e9 UGP team, was welcomed by the Communaut\u00e9 de Pratiques Agro\u00e9cologiques Rilgr\u00e9 (CoRi) of the Absouya commune. The Community Facilitator of the Rilgr\u00e9 project in the commune of Absouya explained to the mission the progress of the work carried out on the site in terms of support from the Rilgr\u00e9 project. The 3-hectare field, once degraded and abandoned for 5 years, belonging to Ou\u00e9draogo Noufou – a beneficiary of the Rilgr\u00e9 project – has been reclaimed through a combination of several agroecological practices, including the creation of stone barriers, za\u00ef and half moons. Crops were treated with bio-inputs including bokashi and kogelgzanga during the past season. The crop grown is sorghum, and production is estimated at 3 tonnes 834 kg, giving a yield of 1.25 tonnes per hectare using the yield square technique: a success given the average yield of the same crop, estimated at around 700 kg, in the locality. <\/p>\n\n

At the end of the visit, the mission spoke with the owner of the field and other members of the CoRi, direct beneficiaries of the Rilgr\u00e9 project, about the benefits of adopting agroecological practices and their concerns, which boil down to the need for water to carry out market gardening activities after the wet season.<\/p>\n\n

In Kaya, the mission team’s discussions with Solidar Suisse focused mainly on progress in implementing the Rilgr\u00e9 project, capitalizing on the various innovative approaches of the Rilgr\u00e9 project, in particular the CoRi community-based approach, and collaborative relations with the PTCS-Burkina team. It was agreed that Solidar Suisse and Enabel would pool their efforts to capitalize on the innovative approaches. <\/p>\n\n

The Rilgr\u00e9 project is being implemented by the Solidar Suisse consortium and the Association Beo-Neer\u00e9 Agro\u00e9cologie (ABNA) in partnership with the Wendkuni Association. Its overall aim is to improve the integrated management of natural resources and sustainably restore natural ecosystems in the Sahel, in order to strengthen the resilience of vulnerable populations in the face of climate change. It covers 13 communes in the Plateau-Central, Centre-Nord and Centre-Est regions. <\/p>\n\n

The Rilgr\u00e9 project is financed by the Kingdom of Belgium as part of the implementation of the Portefeuille Th\u00e9matique Climat Sahel (PTCS)-volet Burkina Faso.<\/p>\n\n
