Our Work
Join us in our work towards climate change for a sustainable future.
Agriculture
The adverse impacts affect crops, livestock and fisheries leading to reduction of agricultural productivity and food insecurity. Increase in temperatures has resulted in increased difficulties in controlling and managing pests and diseases. Therefore climate change has kept the proportion of a population which is dependent on subsistence agriculture to be below the national poverty line.
Energy
The frequent droughts and rising temperatures is leading to drying up of biomass and result in reduction and inadequate fuel wood which is core to rural populations mainly. The changes in circulation and distribution of water (hydrology) will result in worsening droughts and more dangerous and disastrous flooding. These changes will have an impact on the cost of power, sufficiency of power and ultimately affect productivity in the country.
Water
Both floods and droughts worsen access to safe and clean drinking water among households they increase the prevalence of water borne diseases and labour burden on women and girls especially in both the peri-urban and rural areas.
