The ARCCHAD project tackles the challenges that climate change poses to the most vulnerable participants in agriculture. Small-scale farming, deeply rooted in historical knowledge and traditional horticultural practices, prevails on both sides of the border. Family-run farms play vital roles in sustaining rural areas. However, their traditional farming methods and marketing strategies are no longer effective, as they grapple with the adverse impacts of climate change. The lack of awareness about technological, social, and market advancements on both sides of the border underscores the need for cross-border initiatives. ARCCHAD proposes an innovative, multi-stakeholder approach.
The primary target groups experience similar issues in both countries, and the proposed solutions are equally applicable to them. The main target group comprises small-scale farmers, who are the direct beneficiaries of the project. Awareness-raising activities also target consumers/citizens in the border area. Other stakeholder organizations are also actively involved.
