We are pleased to announce a new Climate Fund project, namely the ” Lighting up the village of Kpotomey, Benin. A solar-powered rural lighting project.”

The latest Naturefriends Climate Fund project was launched on 18 June 2022 in Mali. The objective of the project is to create a commercial nursery to produce fruit tree seedlings in the village of Farako. In one year, 1,000 fruit trees such as mango, lemon, guava, mandarin, and papaya are to be produced and planted to meet the nutritional needs of the population, combat soil erosion and counteract climate change.

Since 2017, the Naturefriends Climate Fund has been financing projects in Africa that help reduce the consequences of climate change, improve the living conditions of the population, and protect the climate. This way, we contribute to a (climate) juster world and support people in the Global South with partnership-based projects to adapt their lives as best as possible to the impacts of climate change and to contribute to climate protection themselves.

In the spirit of solidarity that identifies the Naturefriends movement, Naturefriends of the Haut-Rhin-region wanted to join the "Fruit trees for Senegal" operation; this is a subject that is just as dear to their hearts: to contribute to the regreening of Africa.

We are delighted to announce a new Climate Fund project to combat poverty and hunger while mitigating the impact of climate change. It will be implemented by our partner organisation (C-member) 2ADIB-MALI Amis de la Nature, which has been implementing projects that fight poverty and malnutrition and ensure environmental sustainability and education in Mali for almost 20 years.
