Strengthening farmers’ involvement and empowerment in the transition towards agroecology
EconView Socioeconomic Consulting(ESC) is dedicated to fostering sustainable agricultural resilience by strengthening farmer involvement and empowerment through Ethiopia’s agroecology transition. We believe that true ecological transformation begins with the agency of the smallholder farmer. By integrating indigenous knowledge with scientific innovation, we help transition local food systems toward sustainability and equity.
Our team delivers a comprehensive, data-driven framework to ensure project success. We design baseline assessments to capture local socioeconomic nuances and ecological conditions. We implement participatory models that put farmers at the center of decision-making, ensuring the adoption of regenerative practices. And a rigorous M&E analysis to track impact, measuring both environmental health and the socioeconomic uplift of farming communities. Through this holistic approach, EconView ensures that the transition to agroecology is not just a technical shift, but a pathway to lasting economic independence for Ethiopian farmers.
