Climate Change Adaptations
With the growing impacts of climate change, existing threats to safety and resilience are being significantly exacerbated, tremendously increasing the vulnerability of those already at risk.
Description
Candle of Hope Foundation (COHF) adopts a community-centered approach to climate change adaptation by promoting climate-smart agriculture, sustainable water management, and nature-based solutions to build the resilience of vulnerable populations. Through interventions such as the establishment of cone gardens, promotion of drought-tolerant crops, soil conservation techniques, and training on Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), COHF equips communities with practical skills to adapt to shifting climatic conditions. In arid and semi-arid regions like Kitui, Makueni, and Marsabit, COHF has introduced agro ecological practices, supported value addition for agricultural products, and enhanced access to clean energy solutions, enabling women and youth to sustain their livelihoods despite increasing climate shocks.
