Photo exhibition at the Palais des Nations entitled "Shared Risks, Shared Responsibility: Opportunities for Cooperation".
This photo exhibit is an event to highlight existing practices and opportunities to build disaster resilient communities and nations, as part of the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA), a ten-year plan endorsed by the General Assembly in 2005 to coordinate country efforts to reduce disaster risk.
It provides visual evidence of how countries are interpreting the HFA principles to reduce risk to protect and advance development, and the need for this important work to be fully integrated into sustainable development initiatives.

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.

BLAYAH TOWN, LIBERIA: Aug. 30, 2017 - The Jogbahn Clan fought against the British-owned company Equatorial Palm Oil (EPO) when they tried to take over their land in 2013. The people in the community depend on the land for their livelihoods. The Sustainable Development Institute (SDI) started to help the community by submitting a formal complaint to the to the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). SDI taught the clan about land rights and resisting with non-violence. THE RSPO determined that the land EPO was using belonged to the clan. SGI trained the community how to map their land and boundaries were created that EPO accepted not to cross. Photo by Morgana Wingard

In 2010, Living Earth Foundation launched the pan African Waste to Wealth programme. The project responds to specific challenges faced by poor people living in urban slums in Africa.
The programme encourages all sectors of society to develop collaborative solutions to tackle the challenges of waste management. We support entrepreneurs, micro enterprises, social ventures and community groups to generate an income through waste recycling, and to develop public private partnerships with local government to improve waste collection and waste management in poor slum areas.
Living Earth’s Waste to Wealth programme is funded by the European Union, the UK Government’s Department for International Development and Comic Relief, and is currently active in Cameroon, Nigeria, Uganda and Sierra Leone.

After a decade devastation through civil war, Sierra Leone is now more than ten years into a process of dramatic rehabilitation and reconstruction. With extensive mineral wealth, and as home to the third largest natural harbour in the world, the country is the focus of significant multinational industrial activity, yet more than 70% of its population still lives in poverty. As Sierra Leone’s economic and socio-political position improves, rapid and increasing urbanisation across the country is placing both a great strain on infrastructure within towns, and resulting in the degradation of beaches and rainforests around them. This impacts disproportionally heavily upon the urban poor.
Living Earth, in collaboration with local partners ACEDO (accelerated Community and Environmental Development Organisation) and The Collective SL, works with communities to empower them to resolve their local environmental and social development issues; through developing awareness, understanding and management skills. Engaging local communities as active stakeholders in developing solutions to development and conservation challenges is essential if such solutions are to be effective, long-lasting and accepted by the communities themselves.
