Strengthening Resilience Against Climate Change

We promote sustainable environmental practices and advocate for climate justice to secure
Somalia’s future against ecological threats.

Adaptation and Mitigation: We support communities to adapt to climate change through improved practices, resilience planning, and sustainable livelihoods. Our initiatives promote both adaptation and mitigation strategies to reduce climate vulnerabilities.

Ecosystem Restoration: We engage in community-driven restoration of degraded ecosystems, including rangelands and coastal areas, ensuring that vital natural resources are preserved and restored to sustain life and livelihoods.

Integrating Environment into Peacebuilding: Recognizing the strong connection between environmental stress and conflict, we integrate environmental sustainability into peacebuilding efforts, helping to reduce tensions over scarce resources and promoting shared stewardship.

Climate Justice and Advocacy: We advocate for climate justice and green development policies, ensuring that Somalia is represented in global climate conversations while prioritizing the needs of vulnerable, frontline communities.
