Peer groups of farmers to share technical skills, socio-economic knowledge and provide support with the use of facilitation methods

To be resilient, farms need to adapt to an evolving environment. Organised support groups enable people to share personal experiences and ideas that push the whole group forward. At a local level, peer groups of farmers help each other adapt to change by sharing knowledge, innovations to be tested, failures and successes. Peer groups benefit from collective strength and professional facilitation.
