Emergency Response: Supporting communities affected by recent floods in West Africa
Learn More →Promoting sustainable practices that protect ecosystems, reduce carbon footprints, and create resilient communities across Africa.
We promote agroecology and work with farmers to protect local ecosystems and biodiversity, deploy soil and water conservation techniques, and reduce carbon footprints.
Our expert staff work with farmers as they integrate climate-smart agricultural practices on their farms to increase resilience and crop production. We support biogas plants that provide clean energy to local households, and irrigation projects that use water more efficiently.
Sustainable practices for current and future generations
Climate change is the biggest threat facing human civilisation. The impacts of a warming climate are already being witnessed, and it is the poorest and most vulnerable people who feel the impacts first, and most severely.
In Africa, changing rainfall patterns heavily impact the 44% of the population employed in the agricultural sector.
Limiting global warming to 1.5°C requires urgent action to reduce carbon emissions and adopt sustainable practices.
African communities are three times more vulnerable to climate change impacts despite contributing the least to global emissions.
Environmental sustainability must be incorporated into every aspect of life and creates numerous opportunities to provide better more inclusive livelihoods.
Our environmental sustainability work plays out across three main programmes.
Implementing sustainable waste management systems that convert human waste into valuable resources like compost for agriculture, reducing pollution and improving soil health.
