FCA Finn Church Aid on Instagram: "#ClimateChange is changing farming. 🌾

Old crops won't grow, drought and flooding increase and - without support and investment - whole communities suffer. 

🇳🇵#Nepal is primarily an agricultural country. The latest data shows that around 66% of households in Nepal are engaged in farming. That means the majority of Nepali households, especially in rural areas, have lifestyles, household chores, cultural influences, incomes, and gender roles shaped by agricultural practices.

☀️ With climate change having a significant impact worldwide, Nepal too has been severely affected. These consequences directly impact the lives of Nepali women, as many male members of the household seek employment abroad for additional income.

The GRAPE project promotes Climate Resilient Agriculture, not just to farmers, but to local governments, journalists and under constant consultation with civil society organisations. 

🍇 GRAPE is jointly financed by the European Union (EU), the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland, and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
