The Triple A project sought to address the effects of climate change by supporting community members strengthen their adaptive capacity by building resilient livelihoods. The project has supported 24 project groups in the middle Nyando Valley in western Kenya. Using an Asset-Based Community-Driven(ABCD) approach, the project has been directed at supporting the sustainable development of agroforestry practices, driven by small-holder farmers. Currently, each group has seen an increase in farming for business rather than subsistence, a shift to higher value crops, and cooperation within across groups to share technical expertise.

We work towards the application of GeoScience in real decision contexts, such as climate change adaptation, hydrological effects of changes in climate and land cover, targeting of agroforestry interventions, provision of soil fertility and surveillance advisory services for smallholder farmers, digital soil and land use/cover mapping, and measuring impacts of interventions, all using open source software.
