Who we Are

The Agro-Climatic Resilience in Semi-Arid Landscapes (ACReSAL) project is a World Bank supported Project that seeks to address some of the critical environmental challenges in Nigeria, specifically, it pursues the mitigation of the problems of Land degradation in Northern Nigeria arising from Climate Change. The Project approach is multisectoral; addressing the effects of the Climate change on the Environment, Water Resources and Agriculture vis-à-vis their corresponding impact on the livelihoods of the people. It is supported in Adamawa State through a government counterpart contribution and implemented by the State Project Management (SPMU) Team headed by a Project Coordinator. The SPMU is responsible for the day to day running of the project and works with the Federal Project Management Office and the Acresal Task Team of the World Bank towards success
