Uganda is home to one of the richest rainforests in Africa, but population growth, unsustainable land use and climate change put increasing pressure on nature and livelihoods. Conserving these can only be done through strong collaboration between local, national and international networks of local communities, civil society, government and businesses. IUCN NL strengthens processes to connect different levels of nature conservation by supporting communities and civil society groups in Uganda, together with our partner organisation ECOTRUST.

About
Climate change has major consequences for people and nature. It is often the countries hit hardest by flooding and increasing drought that also lack the financial resources to combat climate change and to adapt to its effects.
Mobilising More for Climate (MoMo4C) is a five-year programme (2019 – 2024) of IUCN Netherlands, WWF Netherlands and Tropenbos International, funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It brings together entrepreneurs, companies, policymakers, investors, civil society organisations and local entrepreneurs to make green business propositions that tackle the impacts and causes of climate change at the landscape level in developing countries, and to attract investments to implement these initiatives.
By mobilising more funding for nature-based climate adaptation and mitigation solutions, we contribute to healthy and thriving landscapes in Cameroon, Ghana, Indonesia, Mozambique and Uganda.
