Welcome to the c&c toolbox
The coffee&climate toolbox is an interactive web app on climate-smart coffee cultivation for smallholder coffee farmers, trainers and experts worldwide. In response to the needs of coffee farmers, the initiative for coffee&climate developed the toolbox in collaboration with farmers, agronomic experts and researchers to bridge the gap between science and farmer know-how.
Accessible via smartphone, tablet, and laptop, even in low-bandwidth areas, the c&c toolbox offers approved climate-smart coffee practices. It includes so-called “tools” in the form of videos and easy-to-use step-by-step instructions that equip farmers and farming communities with valuable information. It is free of charge, user-friendly and intuitive, and comes in different languages.
