1. agroforestry action as a driver of socioeconomic development and emission reduction
2. linking agricultural production with small-scale energy sources to enable socio-economic development and emission reductions
3. analytical approaches to assess greenhouse gas emissions and socioeconomic development impact of actions across the energy and agriculture sector through integrating models and translating approaches into policies and actions.

Participating countries to date: Cameroon, Cote D’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ghana, Kenya, Morocco, Mozambique, and Zambia
