BUCRA Impact Cluster

BUCRA Impact Cluster

We are proud to be part of the BUCRA Impact Cluster in Qahbunah, a farming community in Sharkiya, Egypt.

Today, local farmers in the Nile Delta are facing major challenges such as climate change, water scarcity, salinization and land fragmentation.

BUCRA (Building Unity for Climate Resilient Agriculture) aims to prepare the Egyptian agricultural sector for the future by introducing climate-resilient farming methods and ensuring stable incomes for local farmers.

The project, funded by the Ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken, has eight main partners: NABC (project coordinator), SkillEd, FutureWater, Witteveen+Bos, Delphy, Sanable Group, Mozare3 | مُزارع, and Buzoor.

SkillEd’s task will be to develop digital training for farmers in Qahbunah and the surrounding communities, as well as a helpful app for assessing soil quality, irrigation advice and recommendations for climate-resilient crops.
