When an entire ecosystem unravels, families experience hunger, a loss of income, real safety concerns, and kids can't going to school.
To move toward sustainable futures, we have to work with communities and think about the system that supports life in the area as a whole.
Together with thousands of local farmers and community leaders, we want to tip the balance back toward natural environments that can flourish, protect life, and support healthy communities—and in the process, make a dent in the global fight to limit climate change.
We’re doing that through an initiative called Nature-Based Solutions, together with our partners in Lutheran World Federation. Nature-based solutions take a big, ambitious, multi-faceted approach that boils down to a simple premise: if we take care of creation, it can take care of us.
As we restore and transform ecosystems where life is at threat, we can put food on tables, prevent disease, limit disaster, support sustainable, growing economies, and help limit how much our world warms.
Your gift provides critical seed funding that will grow thanks to government matching so that 640,000 people will be able to live and work in ecosystems that will have been restored.
