Multinational - Rural Livelihoods' Adaptation to Climate Change in the Horn of Africa II (RLACC II)

The Rural Livelihood’s Adaptation to Climate Change in the Horn of Africa – Phase II (RLACC II) project is a multinational program that covers Somalia and Sudan. The program activities are country-driven and will be implemented through two Projects respectively in Sudan and Somalia. The Sudan component targets the States of White Nile, Gedaref and Kassala, for a total cost of USD 7,082,407. The Somalia component targets Somaliland (Awal region, villages of Quljeed, Ton and Salawley-Cheikh Hared), Puntland (Bari and Nugaal region), and South Central Somalia (Galguduud and Hiraan States), for a total of USD 9,985,185. Although the RLACC II program targets specific villages or regions, an important criterion for the selection of targeted sites was their position in the target countries’ migration flows. Due to the seasonal migratory nature of pastoralists, the project’s benefits will not be limited to the project sites and their surroundings.
