Introduction Uganda
The Programme for Smart-Climate Agriculture is designed to equip TVET students with practical skills and knowledge needed to succeed in modern agriculture under changing climate conditions. The programme focuses on hands-on learning that helps students understand how to increase agricultural productivity while protecting the environment and using resources efficiently. Students will learn practical climate-smart practices in crop and livestock production, climate information services, digital tools, and simple innovations that support better farm planning and decision-making. The delivery of these lessons that are aligned with EU policy standards will follow a blended approach, combining online learning through an e-learning platform with on- site practical activities and farm-based tasks. The programme will include one theoretical module and two practical modules, designed using a non-formal learning methodology. Overall, the programme prepares TVET students to become skilled agricultural practitioners, entrepreneurs, and extension support personnel who can apply climate-smart solutions, reduce environmental impacts, and contribute to a resilient and sustainable food system.
