Kulima will support 600 extension workers, 8000 community based facilitators and more than 400,000 productive farming families. By the end of the programme these farmers will be able to use climate smart agriculture techniques, they will benefit from higher production and hence higher incomes.

It will enhance the skills of 500 Programme Development Agents (professional and frontline extension workers in nutrition) and will provide school meals in 150 primary schools and 50 Early Child Development centres, on top of the work that will be done on the governance of the sector together with DNHA at the national and district levels.
