Combating Climate Change



Save Generation Development Association has a grand projects to combat the climate change that we all are facing in the world. Drought recovery project and reforestation are the most focused areas for our organization to achieve in fighting the climate change. In this regard, SGDA has been working hard in a grass root level reaching the highly affected farmers by the climate change by helping them with drought  resisting seeds for the next harvest season and training them how to coop in the next drought season. The most vulnerable farmers in the lowland where they get the minimum rain in the year are usually affected year after year as the amount of rain is decrease drastically without proper advance preparation. SGDA with the help of our donors, are engaged thoroughly in supporting this sector of the population whom otherwise face famine and migration to remote areas.

This wooden fuel saving stove looks traditional but saves more fuel from burning by keeping the heat inside. Rural Ethiopia still uses wood burning as main cooking and baking method as the majority of people are away from power grid to use electricity.

Safe Generation Development Association is engaged in introducing different types of mechanism to decrease  CO2 omission such as Bio-Fuel and Solar as the main source of energy for small farmers and their families.
