Vita Voices

Speaking in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Sultan Abdrahiman George, Vita’s Head of the Green Impact Fund, highlights the impactful initiatives Vita has undertaken in the country. The podcast episode discusses these efforts, focusing on grassroots actions to address climate change while empowering local communities, particularly women. The Green Impact Fund, which began as a small-scale project, has grown significantly, now benefiting over 50,000 households with improved cookstoves and providing clean water access to more than 100,000 people. A community-led approach has been crucial to the success, especially in the widespread adoption of fuel-efficient stoves. The programme has driven reforestation efforts, with over half a million trees planted to restore natural resources. Vita’s initiatives make tangible livelihood improvements and contribute to broader sustainability goals. Visit: https://vitaimpact.org/
