Climate Action

Community-led restoration and climate resilience.

In line with Sustainable Development Goal 13, which calls for urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts, we are actively working to help communities adapt to climate realities while restoring degraded ecosystems.

We are proud to contribute toward the AFR100 vision of restoring 100 million hectares of deforested and degraded land across Africa by 2030. Locally, we support Kenya’s ambitious goal of growing 15 billion trees by 2030, ensuring our restoration work is community-led, inclusive, and enduring. By integrating climate action with social justice and economic opportunity, we are building a future where people and nature thrive together.
