Health & Livelihoods Resilience: Building a Sustainable, Healthy Gomba
We understand that the health of our community is inextricably linked to the health of our environment and the stability of our local economy. To create lasting wellness, we connect direct healthcare with initiatives that address the underlying social and environmental determinants of poor health.
Our approach fosters resilience by integrating health education with environmental conservation and sustainable agricultural practices. We promote climate-smart farming techniques that protect the local ecosystem while improving crop yields and household food security—directly combating the malnutrition that undermines community health.
Simultaneously, we provide livelihood support and skills training, empowering community members with alternative and more stable sources of income. This economic stability enables families to better afford healthcare, nutritious food, and education, creating a virtuous cycle of improved well-being.
By tackling the interconnected challenges of environmental stress, economic insecurity, and disease together, we help build climate-resilient and economically stable communities in Gomba District. This holistic model ensures that improvements in health are durable and that communities are equipped to thrive in the face of future challenges.
