Achievements
We have partnered with ACRE since 2015 and have executed a hybrid of successful initiatives including developing a village champion model.
- The model has worked as a platform through which farmers and agri-preneurs are trained to increase uptake of agro-insurance products
- The project resulted to increase in adoption of climate smart agricultural practices and improved awareness of agro-insurance products.
- AIS surpassed the project targets (+240% growth vs original farmer target), and the model has since been replicated across other markets in the region
