Abstract/Description
CCAFS established 3 district platforms in Northern Ghana where the CCAFS CSVs are also sited in order to pilot the use of district-level science-policy platforms to mainstream climate change into local development plans. Current positive achievements resulted into nine other replicated district-platforms. During 2017 agricultural festival in Lawra CSV site, President of Ghana responded favorably to an express request from the Lawra paramount Chief, and committed to scale out the district-level platform model to the whole 216 districts of Ghana.
