Featured projects
Mangrove Belt Revival
First Climate
1,000,000 seedlings/year, 5.32M tonnes CO₂/year potential
The Niger Delta's mangroves were sacrificed to oil. Now First Climate is replanting at industrial scale — a million seedlings a year, community by community.
Eco-Pioneers
Federal Ministry of Youth Development
2,500+ environmental professionals trained, 10+ startups
Lagos generates 10,000 tonnes of plastic waste daily. Youth are turning mountains of trash into roof tiles, into footwear, into enterprise.
Great Green Wall
UNCCD / African Union
50% execution, 45M+ seedlings, 12,000 ha restored
The Sahara crept south for decades. The Great Green Wall is Africa's answer: a 1,359-km shelterbelt planted by communities reclaiming their soil.
Lake Chad Livelihoods
FAO
100,000 target households, 200 youth trained
Lake Chad shrank 90% in sixty years. FAO's aquaculture initiative: catfish in fiberglass tanks, vegetable gardens from wastewater.
Safe Water, Strong Communities
WaterAid Nigeria
5,500+ people in Phase 3, 40,000L+ borehole capacity
In Enugu's villages, girls still walk miles for water. Each WaterAid borehole is more than a tap — it's a girl reclaiming school days.
