Rwanda Environment Awareness Organization (REAO) focuses on Rwanda’s economy which is heavily dependent on its environment and natural resources, and the livelihoods of communities depend on access, use and management of such resources. Without sound environmental management, development activities in key sectors such as agriculture, industry, infrastructure, commerce, and energy can lead to significant environmental degradation that can undermine economic growth. Thus, there is a need to promote environment awareness and mainstream environment and climate change while addressing national priorities.  Priority areas for environment and climate change as cross-cutting issues include:

Mainstreaming environmental sustainability into productive and social sectors

Reducing vulnerability to climate change; and Preventing and controlling pollution

Community Engagement and Livelihoods

Helping rural communities in Northern Rwanda adapt to climate change.

Environmental Education and Awareness

Building affordable homes using sustainable materials and energy.

REAO planted Agroforestry trees and climate smart agriculture practices in Groupe scolaire JABANA

Improving urban environments with more green spaces and smart infrastructure.
