In Most Affected People and Areas of climate change (Somalia), The production and export of charcoal – an economic activity that dates to pre-colonial times – has long served to meet local and regional energy requirements as well as provide livelihoods opportunities for many families. Consequently, the trade in charcoal has accelerated threats such as environmental degradation and conflict over the control of resultant revenue.

My evergreen agriculture project is to create a sustainable land management approach that is productive land year-round. this encompasses land management approaches such as farmer managed natural regeneration (FMNR) and agro-forestry (AF). As a sustainable land management approach, EVA restores degraded lands by improving tree cover, land productivity, soil fertility and providing a wealth of goods and services.

I would like to work with pastoralists and farmers who are passionate about climate action, from local communities and grassroots organizations to government officials and scientists. I believe everyone can benefit from our work, whether it’s reducing our carbon footprint and finding ways to mitigate climate change or finding ways to adapt to our changing climate. By working together, we can create a more sustainable future for our planet.
