    Project Details

    KfW, acting on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, financed the rehabilitation of irrigation infrastructure along the Niger River to enhance agricultural production and food security. Monitoring the project's implementation and assessing its impact necessitated geospatial information derived from satellite imagery, particularly following substantial damage to the region due to heavy flooding in 2020.
