Communities

We support communities most affected by climate change and increase their chances to build a bright future through sustainable livelihood creation, conservation education, and restoration of their fragile ecosystems.

We are building a worldwide network of communities working together towards a sustainable future.

To do so, we facilitate corporates and communities collaborating – with communities leading the conversation about what they need and what matters most. Both parties are able to plan on the basis of long-term support, as equal partners with shared aims.
