The She Leads Green Action Program (SLGAP) offers women aged 18-35 a six-week immersive experience focused on green actions and environmental sustainability. Through workshops, field trips, and hands-on projects, participants learn about the environment and how they can promote gender equality and lead sustainable actions.
Since its launch in June 2022, SLGAP has trained two cohorts of 60 women, providing them with leadership skills, climate change knowledge, and entrepreneurial tools to foster sustainable development. A major achievement is the rehabilitation of over 1,000 mangroves in Kunduchi Mtongani, enhancing coastal resilience.
The program has also inspired the creation of five women-led social businesses in sustainable agriculture, eco-products, and renewable energy. Additionally, 10 products and prototypes with scale-up potential have been developed, contributing to environmental and economic sustainability.
A strong alumni network ensures continued support through mentorship, coaching, and networking.

Indonesia's biodiversity includes many endemic, often threatened tree species such as the Tengkawang tree (Shorea stenoptera), which bears fruit from which oil can be extracted. This oil has been used by the indigenous Dayak people for centuries for cooking, skin care, and ceremonial purposes. Because Tengkawang oil has properties similar to cacao butter and can act as its substitute, it has become a desirable commodity in the cosmetics industry. The project aimed to contribute to nature-positive economic recovery by adding value to the Tengkawang oil supply chain, offering local communities additional sustainable income sources while reducing pressures associated with timber extraction on the forest ecosystem. Thereby, the solution comprised addressing each step along the Tengkawang fruit value chain: from establishing tree nurseries and building capacity for harvesting and processing, to expanding a network of Tengkawang actors and empowering communities to plan business activities. 

La comunidad de Tomas y el Instituto de Montaña implementaron una medida de Adaptación basada en Ecosistemas (AbE) en alianza con la Reserva Paisajística Nor Yauyos-Cochas y la UICN. Nuestra solución de adaptación combinó el conocimiento local y el científico y tuvo cuatro componentes: (1) Fortalecimiento de la organización comunal, (2) Fortalecimiento de capacidades y conocimientos locales, (3) Infraestructura verde-gris, y (4) Medios de vida.

La medida AbE en Tomas responde a una prioridad de la comunidad: mejorar el manejo de la vicuña, un camélido sudamericano cuya fibra está muy bien cotizada y que está mejor adaptado que el ganado exótico a las condiciones climáticas actuales y futuras en la zona. La comunidad ha cercado 241 hectáreas de pastizales nativos que gestionará de manera sostenible para la crianza de vicuñas. Así, la medida AbE contribuye a mejorar los medios de vida locales y a incrementar la resiliencia de la población y los ecosistemas frente al cambio climático.
