Six pilots built to be scaled.
Each project tackles several challenges at once: education, livelihoods, health, inclusion and the environment. We design them in Cameroon so they can be adapted nationally and internationally.
Green Skills to Green Jobs Pathway GS2GJ
Most programs stop at training. This project connects skills directly to income and jobs, especially in the green economy.
What we do
- Train youth, women and persons with disabilities in green skills (waste recovery, eco-products, climate-smart practices)
- Support micro-enterprise creation and cooperatives
- Link participants to local markets and buyers
- Provide mentorship and business incubation
Why it’s different
- Moves from skills to income to sustainability
- Focuses on climate-positive livelihoods
- Builds local green economies instead of short-term jobs
Community Climate Classrooms C³
Climate education is rarely localized or inclusive. This project brings climate learning directly into communities using practical, everyday examples.
What we do
- Mobile and community-based climate education sessions
- Hands-on learning using local environmental challenges
- Youth-led climate action labs
- Inclusive learning tools for persons with disabilities
Why it’s different
- Climate education outside formal schools
- Community-owned learning spaces
- Links knowledge to immediate action
Women-Led Circular Economy Hubs
Most waste projects focus on clean-ups. This project turns waste into income, led by women.
What we do
- Establish women-led hubs that transform waste into usable products
- Train women in eco-friendly production and entrepreneurship
- Support access to markets and cooperatives
Why it’s different
- Waste management, income and women’s leadership together
- Circular economy at community level
- Reduces environmental and health risks
Disability-Inclusive Development Labs DIDL
Disability inclusion is often an add-on. This project makes it the starting point.
What we do
- Co-design programs with persons with disabilities
- Adapt training, tools and infrastructure for accessibility
- Build leadership pathways for persons with disabilities
Why it’s different
- Inclusion by design, not accommodation
- Rarely implemented in community development
- Creates replicable inclusive models
Health–Environment–Livelihood Nexus Project HELN
Health, environment and income are usually treated separately. This project integrates all three.
What we do
- Environmental health education (waste, water, hygiene)
- Community action to reduce pollution-related risks
- Livelihood activities that improve health outcomes
Why it’s different
- Preventive health through environmental action
- Reduces health costs by addressing root causes
- Aligns with global “One Health” approaches
Youth Civic & Environmental Leadership Incubator
This is not a youth club. It is a leadership pipeline.
What we do
- Train youth in leadership, ethics and community action
- Provide mentorship and project seed support
- Connect youth to national and international platforms
Why it’s different
- Builds future leaders, not just volunteers
- Links civic engagement with environmental action
- Scalable across regions and countries
