Webinar: Resilient Agriculture Innovations for Nature – RAIN

Join us on December 15, 2022, for a webinar on the Resilient Agriculture Innovations for Nature (RAIN) challenge.

Webinar recording

Global Resilience Partnership (GRP) and Shockwave Foundation are partnering on the Resilient Agriculture Innovations for Nature (RAIN) challenge. RAIN aims to convert seed-level innovative agricultural ideas that are meeting resilience needs in East Africa and scale them to sustainable business ideas of interest to private investors and funders. The challenge is open to rural farmers, entrepreneurs, organizations or consortiums of organizations across public, private, civil society and grassroots organizations as well as academia in East Africa (Burundi, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda).

The webinar will answer any questions potential applicants might have and provide an in-depth look at what nature-positive agriculture is, and why it is critical to transforming agricultural systems.
