Addressing the urgent challenge of climate change, EcoRise aims to implement climate resilience programs for 20,000 community members by 2026 and influence the adoption of three climate-focused national policies by 2027
EcoRise is also investing in people, with their Education and Community Empowerment initiative set to train 10,000 youth and women in green skills by 2025 and reach 50,000 students with environmental education by 2026
These impact goals demonstrate EcoRise Zambia's unwavering commitment to creating a resilient and thriving Zambia, where people and the environment prosper together.
