Climate Action for the future: Promoting climate resilience through locally led, gender-sensitive and ecosystem-based solutions
Resilience
integrated approach
Our projects boost community and ecosystem resilience by enhancing adaptive capacity to the climate crisis, food sovereignty, biodiversity and ecosystem services. We aim to address structural inequalities as key drivers of vulnerability.
Climate Justice
at all levels
Advocating for socially just solutions addressing climate change that recognize the needs, priorities and rights of affected populations
Empowering communities
good governance
We prioritize community-led climate adaptation and environmental stewardship, promoting knowledge exchange between traditional and scientific sources. Our focus is on building governance, advocacy, and resource management capacities in partner organisations like farmers' cooperatives.
Promoting community-based adaptation initiatives focussed on conserving and restoring ecosystems and their services, such as food forests and mangrove reforestation
Supporting the conservation and restoration of carbon sinks, both in natural ecosystems and agricultural landscapes
Strengthening community governance structures for stewardship of natural resources, ensuring equitable access and benefit-sharing
Mainstreaming & Advocacy
Encouraging environmental and climate mainstreaming at institutional and programmatic level, supporting partner organisations with relevant tools, approaches and technical assistance
Supporting our partner organisations to advance climate and environmental expertise and climate risk management skills
Advocating for climate action and finance at local level through our partner organisations' efforts and at (inter)national level through the Austrian Alliance for Climate Justice
Agro-Ecosystem & Water Management
Strengthening climate-resilient agriculture, forestry, and fishery practices based on agroecological principles
Fostering integrated water resource management to ensure sustainable water consumption, balancing the needs of human consumption, agriculture and ecosystem functionality
Fostering farmer-led innovation to adopt water- and resource-efficient agricultural practices
Participants
Our Audience
Individuals
We empower individuals to address climate change and build resilient livelihoods through awareness, knowledge sharing, and skills training. We also support individuals and households with eco-friendly businesses and promote energy and resource efficiency.
Organisations
We facilitate knowledge exchange around climate action among partner organisations and stakeholders. We encourage partner organisations to integrate an environmental, climate, and gender-sensitive perspective into their programs and facilitate access to climate and carbon finance.

We strengthen partner organisation networks and policy dialogue, advocating for low-carbon development and supportive climate policies. At the international level, horizont3000 is part of the Austrian Alliance for climate justice and a shareholder of Klima-Kollekte, supporting certified climate mitigation projects.
