What we do

Clean Energy & Climate Resilience

Solar energy, clean cooking, e-mobility, ecosystem restoration, and climate adaptation converge to build community resilience against climate impacts in Kalagala Parish. CEDP links clean-energy access with forest stewardship and carbon finance so solutions are durable, locally owned, and evidence-verified.

In Kalagala Parish, this area of focus addresses the specific challenges of a peri-urban zone bordering Mabira Forest — where rural and urban service delivery gaps overlap and communities face pressure on land, water, and forest resources.
