Explore our projects

Since 2016 we have been engaged in climate change mitigation and adaptation in rural villages - raising eco-consciousness in communities especially amongst young people. We focus on deforestation and land degradation, sustainable climate-smart farming practices, waste management and government accountability, protecting natural resources and tree planting. Now in 2020, we have mobilised nearly 500 volunteers and have presence in all administrative regions in The Gambia.
