Project Overview
Like many parts of the world, Uganda is experiencing severe climate change and decline of biodiversity which calls for urgent collective environmental changes to reduce the risk of the problem from accelerating. With reports of endangered and extinct species on the rise, there’s no denying that biodiversity loss is the new reality where reports shows that 45 percent of mammals are at risk of extinction and plant life is not much better off, with two-third of plant species also at risk increase greenhouse gas emissions and decrease carbon capture, fueling biodiversity loss which can only be preserved by greater biodiversity but the public is not taking action.
This program therefore aims at to protect, preserve, and restore natural ecosystems, promote sustainable use of resources, and safeguard biodiversity for future generations.
Our Solution
Initiative for Life Concern is therefore focusing at conservation and protection of biodiversity with focus on endangered species, habitat and ecological systems through creating education awareness, research, restoration, sustainable use of natural resources, climate change mitigation and adaptation, and advocacy by engaging local communities, local government, institutions, and companies in addressing biodiversity threats mostly linked to human activities and climate change.
