People. Place. Resilience.
We work with communities across the Mukogodo Ecosystem to respond to climate change, restore degraded landscapes and strengthen livelihoods rooted in pastoral life, agroecology and local knowledge.
Sustainable Food Systems
promoting nutrition in schools, and innovating sustainable food production practices for the pastoral communities in the Mukogodo Ecosystem.
Restoration Network
bringing together young leaders in conservation, peace, water governance and indigenous justice to decision spaces and dialogue for this living Ecosystem.
Resilient Livelihoods
for young people and women to advance economic empowerment through green skills, agri-business and forest and landscape value chains.
A landscape where people, livestock, forests and water are connected.
The Mukogodo Ecosystem is a landscape of dry forests, rangelands, water sources, wildlife and communities whose lives and livelihoods are closely connected to the land. Pastoralism remains an important way of life, with mobility helping communities and livestock respond to changing conditions.
Today, climate change, land degradation and pressure on natural resources are placing increasing strain on these relationships. We cannot sit and watch as the ecosystems that sustain communities are degraded…
The landscape is changing. So are the lives that depend on it.
Climate & Loss and Damage
Climate change is reshaping water, livelihoods, ecosystems and everyday life.
Pastoral Life & Mobility
Mobility, livestock and access to grazing and water remain central to life across Mukogodo.
Land & Ecosystem Restoration
Pressure on rangelands, forests and water systems is weakening the landscape.
The answer is not to abandon these ways of life. It is to strengthen the people, ecosystems and livelihoods that sustain them.
From the land, we build what comes next.
