Farmers in Ghana are already feeling the effects of , with shifting rainfall, longer droughts, and unpredictable weather affecting their crops.

“Today, we do not need anyone to tell us about climate change. It is real, and we see it in our daily lives, even in the rainfall patterns,” said Charity Mensah, a from Assin Wurakese in the Central region and a participant of the EnABLE Ghana project.

A recent mission by the EnABLE Secretariat highlighted how project communities are putting solutions into action. Farmers shared their experiences and how they are adapting with support from the EnABLE Ghana project, which combines practical climate strategies with their local knowledge.

The team observed how farmers are putting these strategies into practice by adjusting planting schedules, diversifying crops, and using water-conservation techniques.

These measures show how combining local knowledge with structured climate adaptation strategies can strengthen resilient farming communities and help farmers face a changing climate with confidence.

At the second World Bank Mission under the EnABLE Project, engagements with project communities in the Western North region of Ghana revealed a clear and encouraging message: communities understand that the carbon benefits they receive are directly linked to protecting forests and planting trees.

Community members openly acknowledged that their participation in forest conservation and sustainable land-use practices has yielded tangible rewards. They cited community-level projects such as boreholes, now providing safe drinking water, as evidence that collective action leads to shared benefits. These interventions have improved livelihoods and strengthened trust in the Ghana Cocoa Forest REDD+ Programme and its Benefit Sharing Plan.

“We know it is because of the trees we planted and the forest we protected that the benefits came to us. Without our care for the land, there would be nothing to share,” said Sylvester Mensah, Chairperson for the Sefwi-Bibiani HIA Management Board (HMB).

The discussions also showed that communities are ready to actively participate in EnABLE activities, viewing them as opportunities to build capacity, diversify livelihoods, and continue benefiting from responsible forest stewardship.

Patrick Kwadwo Ansah, a member of the World Bank Mission team, highlighted the vital role of communities in advancing climate action.

" , , migrants, and persons with disabilities ( ) are not just participants but active contributors to environmental sustainability. Their readiness to engage in benefit sharing and governance is a powerful signal that inclusive climate action is possible at the community level,” he said.

This story underscores a vital lesson. When communities see a clear link between conservation and tangible benefits, they become committed partners in , protecting , planting trees, and securing healthier ecosystems and stronger for future generations.

Last year, the second World Bank mission under the Project engaged the Juaboso-Bia Hotspot Intervention Area (HIA) Management Board in a strategic dialogue to explore how governance structures support protection under the Ghana Cocoa Forest REDD+ Programme ( ).

The Board walked the mission team through its institutional framework, explaining how governance is organized from the community level up to the apex governing body at the HMB level. This structure helps ensure local participation, accountability, and effective coordination across communities in the hotspot areas.

The Board also highlighted its core mandate, which includes supporting forest protection efforts, promoting sustainable land-use practices, and leading community-level awareness creation on the Emission Reduction Programme and its Benefit Sharing Plan. The HIA Management Board acts as a bridge between local communities and state actors, facilitating information flow, feedback, and collaboration to strengthen implementation outcomes.

emerged as a key feature of the HIA governance model. To promote women’s participation in decision-making, the Board has reserved the positions of Vice Chairperson and Treasurer for . Beyond these reserved roles, women are encouraged and eligible to contest all other leadership positions within the structure, reinforcing participation across governance levels.

The engagement underscored the importance of strong, inclusive local institutions in delivering emission reduction benefits and ensuring that community voices, particularly those of women, remain central to forest protection and climate action efforts under the EnABLE Project.

As part of the second World Bank mission under the project, the World Bank team, together with the project implementation team, held an interactive session with women-led cooperatives operating within the EnABLE Project landscape.

The meeting provided a platform to hear from who are directly contributing to emission-reduction efforts while sustaining their .

The discussions centred on the structure and governance of these cooperatives, including leadership roles, decision-making processes, and accountability mechanisms. Members shared their responsibilities within the groups and highlighted the strong culture of mutual support that underpins their operations, ranging from financial assistance during difficult times to collective labour and shared knowledge.

A key focus of the engagement was providing direct livelihood support to EnABLE Project beneficiaries. The women shared their preferences, weighing the benefits of a revolving fund versus grants to grow their activities.

These candid exchanges provided valuable insights into what would be most practical and sustainable for their cooperatives.

The session not only amplified women’s voices but also ensured that beneficiary expectations are clearly reflected in project design and implementation, reinforcing EnABLE’s commitment to inclusive benefit sharing under the Emission Reduction Programme.

Recently, a World Bank mission team, together with the EnABLE project implementation team, visited project communities in the Western North region of Ghana to see firsthand how communities are benefiting from the project.

The visit, which formed part of the second World Bank mission under the Enhancing Access to Benefits while Lowering Emissions (EnABLE) project, provided an opportunity to engage directly with diverse groups whose voices are central to climate action and benefit sharing.

In the communities, the mission team met with women-led cooperatives, persons with disabilities, executives of the Hotspot Intervention Area (HIA) Management Boards, and other community members. Each engagement offered unique insights into how local actors are contributing to emission reduction efforts while sustaining livelihoods, protecting forests, and ensuring inclusive governance.

The mission underscored the importance of listening to women at the heart of cooperative structures, amplifying the perspectives of persons living with disabilities who have often been excluded from climate dialogues, and strengthening the role of local institutions such as the HIA Management Board in promoting accountability and equitable participation.

Visiting the project landscapes, the World Bank team reaffirmed its commitment to inclusive, community-driven approaches that ensure no group is left behind in the design and implementation of climate and forest protection initiatives.

This field mission not only deepened understanding of local realities but also reinforced EnABLE’s vision: that emission reduction and sustainable land-use practices must be anchored in strong, inclusive institutions and the lived experiences of communities who depend on forest resources for their survival.
