Through our global microforest initiative, we are planting thousands of small, dense forests with communities to increase biodiversity, reduce carbon dioxide and create livelihoods.
Supporting communities to address the challenges and opportunities of climate change and contribute to a healthy planet.
The Aga Khan Foundation collaborates with communities to strengthen their resilience to climate change, so they not only survive but thrive. Our approach is founded on developing local understanding and ownership in combination with scientific knowledge and co-creating interventions for mitigation and adaptation, such as renewable energy, biodiversity promotion, sustainable water management, forest and mangrove regeneration and soil sequestration.
We are currently working with more than 600,000 farmers and helping them transition to regenerative farming and 12,000 local natural resource management institutions and each year plant millions of trees, restore 10,000s hectares of land and natural resources assets, and generate clean and reliable electricity for over 30,000 people.
It is our collective responsibility to be good stewards of the planet. At this critical moment, we must all nurture and invest in solutions that can repair our planet before it is too late.Prince Rahim Aga Khan
