We carry out community-driven activities to mitigate the effects of climate change, including food security. We support small farmers, which contributes to improving their production and the income generated by the cooperatives in which they are affiliated.

We are introducing new methods of collecting and saving water, which is essential for, among other things, growing food and raising animals but also for drinking, cooking and daily hygiene.

We also provide training to local authorities on climate change mitigation and disaster risk.

To reduce the risk of disasters:

• we support small farmers and the operation of agricultural cooperatives to increase their food production capacity. We supply seeds, provide special irrigation systems, provide training in efficient crop and animal husbandry methods, as well as in business and marketing
• we provide access to water by building sand dams, wells and water distribution systems and sanitation infrastructure in schools
• we set up hydroponic systems in schools
• we train local authorities in disaster risk reduction
• we provide tree seedlings to reduce ongoing deforestation
