Effects of climate change include higher temperatures, increases in precipitation patterns, rising sea levels, weather-related natural disasters, increased drought and decreased food security. UWO recognizes that stakeholder’s behavior and behavioral change is paramount in promoting environmental conservation, sustainable natural resources management, and responsible development. Behavior is the results of decisions made, the actions taken and the practices undertaken by either individuals or members of a stakeholders group.
UWO underscores building and managing strong relationship and networks with various stakeholders in the civil society, partners, government, donors and UWO’s programs/projects’ beneficiary communities. UWO works with national and international NGO’s and development partners to address national and local priorities with global conservation impact.
Our advocacy work aims to amplify the collective voice for climate action, in pursuit of common goals of increased climate funding, strengthened carbon markets, and climate reparations.
UWO supported women and youth initiatives who are involved in environmental conservation through tree planting .women and youth are front line of the climate action but climate finances don’t get to them .
