Over 60 female agricultural extension volunteers in the Sissala East and the Wa East Districts have benefitted from a three-day zonal-based sensitization on agricultural extension services.
It was organized concurrently for selected women farmers in Tumu and Bugubelle in the Upper West Region.
Madam Felicia Juabie Munkaila, a Project Officer of the Northern Ghana Integrated Development Project (NGIDP) with ActionAid in a welcome address, said the project was a four-year project funded by the European Union and ActionAid Ghana as the lead consortium in partnership with Tree Aid and Urbanet.
Madam Munkaila said the object of the project was to contribute to rural poverty reduction in Ghana through economic development adaptation of environmentally-sustained agriculture policies and practices and greater access to social protection.
