ADRA transforms the lives of vulnerable populations by fostering secure livelihoods through enhanced economic opportunities, improved food security, and strengthened resilience. Our livelihood programs provide hands-on training that equips communities with critical skills, microloans, seeds, and livestock to establish dependable sources of income and drive self-reliance.

ADRA’s Farmer Market School model (FMS) revolutionizes traditional farming and places farmers at the forefront of their economic destinies. FMS equips farmers with market knowledge and actionable insights, empowering them to take control of their value chains and make informed decisions based on real-time market conditions. They actively engage with buyers, sellers, and other value chain actors, building relationships beyond simply selling crops. This direct interaction gives them confidence and tools to secure better prices and improve market access.

ADRA’s innovative livelihoods program transforms lives, enabling individuals and communities to achieve economic independence and long-term resilience. ADRA leads the charge to scale the Farmer Market School model across Africa and equip farmers to harness the full power of the marketplace.
