How Project Affects Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions:

['Replaces/avoids GHGs (e.g., projects that replace sources of GHGs, such as the burning of fossil fuels for electricity, heat, transport, or other energy uses)', 'Reduces GHGs (e.g., projects that reduce sources of GHGs, such as through efficiency or other changes in consumption)']

Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

Our project actively empowers underrepresented groups, particularly women, youth, and climate-vulnerable communities, by prioritizing their involvement in decision-making processes and implementation activities. We conduct training sessions tailored specifically for women, equipping them with sustainable agricultural practices, which enhances their economic independence and leadership roles in their households and communities.

Youth engagement is central to our approach; we incorporate young people in project planning and implementation, providing them with skills and opportunities to become climate advocates. Through workshops and mentorship programs, youth gain vital experience and become community leaders driving climate action.

Additionally, our organization reflects diversity in its leadership and staff, ensuring representation from various backgrounds, including people of color and local community members. This inclusive structure fosters a sense of ownership and trust, making it easier to address the specific needs and concerns of marginalized groups.

By focusing on these underrepresented demographics, our project not only advances climate solutions but also promotes social equity. This approach builds community resilience, empowering these groups to lead local climate initiatives and ensuring their voices are heard in broader climate discussions, ultimately driving more effective and inclusive climate action.
