Climate Resilience

Global Communities (formerly PCI) has been actively addressing challenges presented by climatic change in Ethiopia. With funding provided by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Global Communities has worked for many years in the region to improve resilience to climate and conflict in some of Ethiopia’s most vulnerable regions. While in Oromia, I worked with the local program staff to identify and capture the stories of these programs where the key focal points include programs to improve access to clean water, expand economic and agricultural diversity, engage the community in environmental rehabilitation, erosion prevention and water retention.
