To reduce the soil sediments that have adverse effect to the lake fisheries productivity, Tuungane program aims at supporting smallholder farmers in the Greater Mahale Ecosystem (GME) in improving their agricultural practices through adoption of conservation agriculture/Climate Smart Agriculture. Tuungane program has been implementing some alternative Income Generating Activities (IGAs) to reduce overdependence on agriculture and fisheries for the community livelihoods.
