Informed Climate Action

Informed Climate Action ( Issues are under construction……… )

MHEWC supports informed climate action through the following areas:

1. Climate-informed, context-specific adaptation planning and implementation:
   MHEWC supports the design and implementation of locally relevant adaptation actions and schemes grounded in biodiversity, ecology, surface hydrology, agroecology, and the hydrological cycle. We specialize in community-level climate risk assessment and the development of climate risk repositories.
2. Diagnosis of local climate systems and community-based adaptation:
   We help diagnose local climate regimes, define adaptation indicators, and plan community-based adaptation schemes and projects. We also support last-mile local actors and stakeholders in implementing these initiatives effectively.
3. Local government support for climate resilience planning:
   MHEWC assists last-mile local governments in conducting sector-level climate risk assessments, planning resilient recovery and development, and establishing local climate change adaptation, mitigation, resilience planning, and budgeting systems.

Climate-Resilient Model Household and Community Development

MHEWC supports last-mile local actors, communities, and households in designing and developing inclusive, natural resource-based model households. These resilience models are intended to help households absorb and withstand climate shocks. The design approach emphasizes the use of locally available renewable resources and appropriate renewable energy technologies, including solar PV, biogas digesters, water harvesting systems for irrigation and drinking water, small-scale water resource management, micro-hydro schemes, and wind power systems.

We design and implement climate-adaptive and resilient household models that enable rural families to meet their green energy needs for cooking and lighting through technologies such as biogas, solar thermal systems, and improved cookstoves, while also strengthening water security, WASH security, food security, and livelihood security.
