has recently announced a new programme the “Supporting Pastoralism & Agriculture
in Recurrent & Protracted Crises (SPARC)” programme (2020 - 2026) which aims to
assist poor and vulnerable people to better cope with and build their resilience to
climate change and recurring shocks, delivering evidence which will improve DFID programmes
and policies supporting pastoral communities. The programme builds on a number of
previous programmes which have focused on improving the resilience of pastoralist
communities, including the Karamoja Resilience programme in Northern Uganda, and the
Building Resilience and Adapting to Climate Extremes and Disasters (BRACED) programme
in the Sahel.</p>
