Climate resilience across the Horn of Africa
Droughts, floods, land degradation and other environmental pressures affect enterprises, public services and livelihoods across the region. GEEL integrates climate considerations into programmes and partnerships to support more sustainable local development.
Adaptation and community resilience
GEEL's approach focuses on practical measures that help communities and enterprises anticipate, absorb and adapt to climate-related changes. Adaptation is linked to local planning, economic opportunities and resilient market systems.
Climate-smart livelihoods and natural resources
Responsible management of water, rangelands, agricultural land and biodiversity contributes to long-term livelihood sustainability. GEEL's sector work considers climate-smart agriculture, livestock, fisheries and green enterprise opportunities.
