European Union and IWMI Celebrate Successful End of REACH-STR Project

European Union and IWMI Celebrate the Successful Conclusion of the REACH-STR Project

The European Union (EU) and the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) have proudly announced the successful completion of the REACH-STR project, a significant initiative aimed at enhancing water resource management and promoting sustainable agricultural practices in Ghana. This collaborative effort has not only strengthened local capacities but has also paved the way for improved water governance in the region.

The REACH-STR project, which stands for “Resilient and Efficient Agricultural Water Management in Sub-Saharan Africa,” focused on addressing the challenges posed by climate change and water scarcity. Over the course of the project, stakeholders from various sectors, including government agencies, local communities, and farmers, worked together to implement innovative water management strategies and practices.

Throughout its duration, the project facilitated numerous training sessions and workshops that equipped participants with the necessary skills to adopt sustainable practices. These initiatives emphasized the importance of integrated water resource management and the adoption of technologies that enhance water efficiency in agricultural activities.

Moreover, the REACH-STR project fostered knowledge exchange and collaboration among regional partners, showcasing best practices in water management. The project’s findings and methodologies will serve as valuable resources for future initiatives aimed at resilience building and sustainable development in the agricultural sector.

As the project comes to a close, the European Union and IWMI express their gratitude to all stakeholders involved for their dedication and hard work. They remain committed to continuing their support for sustainable water management and agricultural development in Ghana and across the region.

The success of the REACH-STR project highlights the critical need for ongoing investment in water infrastructure and management systems to combat the challenges of climate change and ensure food security for future generations. Moving forward, the lessons learned from this initiative will be instrumental in shaping policies and practices that promote resilience and sustainability in water management throughout Sub-Saharan Africa.
