African Indigenous Women Organization Central African Network (AIWO-CAN)

Mbororo pastoralist communities depend on the natural environment for survival, but with climate change, conservation, and tourism, this system is under threat, making extensive herding challenging. This project will address the need to change the quality of herding through improved pastures and the ability of animals to adapt to climate change. The project will also seek to revitalise indigenous knowledge for a sustainable environment.

To increase the community’s resilience to climate change through strengthened livelihoods, access to energy, reduction in deforestation, and knowledge sharing on practices.
