In the context of adapting the agricultural sector to the effects of climate change, the French Global Environment Facility (FFEM) and its executing agency, the French Development Agency (AFD), have established a climate change adaptation project for agriculture in the Maghreb called ACCAGRIMAG, which concerns Morocco and Tunisia. This project aims to contribute to reducing the vulnerability of rainfed agriculture to the impacts of climate change by providing the rainfed agriculture of the Fès-Meknès region with a strategy and an adaptation plan to address the effects of climate change.

To this end, ECI and its partner GIS4DS have been tasked with assessing the current and future vulnerabilities of agriculture in the region based on projections up to 2050. This study has been conducted for the key crops of the region and livestock and will enable the development, based on a participatory approach, of a regional strategy that will subsequently be translated into a regional adaptation plan.

This initial experience will ultimately be capitalized and consolidated into a guide for adaptation, allowing for the replication of this same mission in other regions of the kingdom.
