Environment
Our environmental programs protect natural ecosystems while improving daily life for rural communities, recognising the strong link between environmental health, climate resilience, and gender equity.
We focus on reforestation and land restoration through training programs, tree nurseries and the planting of indigenous and fruit-bearing trees, alongside climate-smart and regenerative land practices that improve soil health, conserve water, and strengthen food security.
A key component of our work is the biogas programme, which provides clean, renewable energy for cooking. By reducing dependence on firewood, the programme helps curb deforestation and protects women and girls from spending long hours collecting wood—often travelling further afield due to scarcity and facing risks from wildlife. Access to biogas saves time, improves household health, and allows women and girls to focus on education and income-generating activities.
Through environmental education and community engagement, we support long-term stewardship of natural resources, ensuring communities and the environment can thrive together.
