"The Sagip Ilog (River Rehabilitation) program was launched on 13 December 2002 for Las Piñas-Zapote River System that stretches 56km. The programme designated 30km for regularly cleaning.

Rio de Janeiro, looking very different than looking from its main touristy beaches.
Note the new cable car connection, perhaps a controversial project, claiming to provide connections to the citizens of the favelas and reduce crime. Nevertheless, it was with little sign of locals, when we were there. A curiosity among an neighbourhood, which is lacking many basic facilities for a quality life. Its building costs are said to reach 210 million R$ (1 R$ = 0,39 €, 6/2012).

The Secondary school covers 6 host-communities in the Zalingei region along with some children of nomad pastoralists. It serves 780 girls with 13 classrooms.
The Community-Driven Development grant covered the rehabilitation of 2 classrooms, the construction of 1 classroom and the construction and an office. The community contributed sand, soil, compact soil and water.
Before this there were more than 80 students in one classroom. This development helped to increase the attendance, as well as space for the existing students.
"We received a lot of new equipment from UNDP – boats, sonar and measuring equipment," says Ryspaev Akylbek, who works in the National Academy of Sciences laboratory of ichthyology and hydrobiology – the only institution in the country with the capacity to conduct fish research.
"We can now conduct a comprehensive study of the lake water, species and determine the impact of various policies. For example, our Government prohibited fishing in Issyk Kul five years ago. Was it helpful? Has it changed anything? That’s what we want to find out."

On the sidelines of the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27) in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, the Rwanda Green Fund and the Development Bank of Rwanda have launched Ireme Invest, a groundbreaking new green investment facility that will support Rwanda’s private sector to access green finance and increase the sector’s contribution to the country’s response to climate change.
Rwanda has set an ambitious climate action agenda to build the country's resilience and foster green growth. To achieve these goals, the country needs investments totaling USD 11 billion. Ireme Invest comes in response to this need by offering a range of financial instruments tailored to meet the needs of Rwanda’s private sector.
Living Earth Foundation has been working in Nigeria since 1996, previously in partnership with the Living Earth Nigeria Foundation (LENF).
Living Earth Foundation has primarily worked in two key states in Nigeria; Bayelsa and Cross River State, located in the heart of the Niger River Delta on the southern coast of Nigeria. The Delta region is one of Nigeria’s most biodiversity rich areas; its mangrove forest is the largest in Africa and the third largest in the world. The area also contains Nigeria’s main oil reserves and since the discovery of oil in the region in 1956, major infrastructural developments including the building of roads and pipelines, along with an influx of migrant workers have taken place. Two million people now live in Bayelsa State and this, along with on-going development, is greatly impacting on the Delta’s ecosystem.
The natural resources of the Niger Delta are vital to the livelihoods of communities living there; communities generate income through livelihoods including farming, hunting, fishing and trading in forest products. As the oil industry has expanded, increased immigration and access to forests and fisheries has resulted in an over exploitation and unsustainable use of the Delta’s natural resources, threatening the livelihoods of the inhabitants in the area.
Living Earth’s community development and environmental education work enables communities to identify and address environmental problems whilst learning to manage their own resources.
