From the ocean to the atmosphere, we believe Somalia's environmental challenges are connected — so our work is too.
Areas of Work
We promote the development of a research culture in Somalia by supporting scientific inquiry, encouraging young researchers, facilitating knowledge exchange, and publishing research that contributes to evidence-based environmental management.
We develop accessible educational opportunities that improve environmental literacy among students, professionals, and the general public — through professional training, public lectures, educational workshops, online learning, and community awareness campaigns.
Ocean conservation remains a core pillar of our work — spanning marine biodiversity, coastal ecosystems, fisheries sustainability, ocean literacy, marine pollution, and blue economy governance.
We promote understanding and action on climate adaptation, climate resilience, nature-based solutions, community preparedness, and environmental policy.
Plastic pollution is one of Somalia's most visible environmental challenges. We work to raise awareness, promote behavioral change, encourage sustainable waste management, support community-led solutions, and reduce plastic leakage into marine ecosystems.
Young people are not merely beneficiaries of our programs — they are partners in designing and leading them. We create opportunities through leadership development, networking, capacity building, skills development, and professional engagement.
How We Deliver
Five complementary programs turn our areas of work into action.
Supporting scientific research, policy analysis, and evidence generation.
Educational resources, training programs, and public learning opportunities.
Discussions connecting researchers, policymakers, practitioners, students, and communities.
Initiatives that directly address environmental challenges through practical intervention.
Working with government institutions, universities, NGOs, and the private sector.
