Por unos Andes habitables a pesar del cambio climático.

Who we are
In a sensitive region...
For generations, the high Andes have been the home and livelihood of many people. However, living conditions outside the cities have always been adverse due to the often remote altitude and special weather conditions. But living in harmony with nature, many communities have managed to defy these adversities and build up a self-sufficient, sustainable life over the centuries.
...climate change threatens to upset the balance.
This life, and with it the associated culture and way of life, is increasingly being put to the test by increased and more extreme heavy rainfall, storms and dry spells. Although the Andean communities are often aware of how crop failures or landslides, for example, can be minimized or absorbed, they lack the resources to implement the appropriate measures.
We support change...
To ensure that migration is not the only solution to the challenges of climate change, we at Aktion Sodis support the impetus of Andean communities to actively and sustainably address the ecological, financial and social implications of climate change. Through community-based needs assessment and solution development as well as scientific and digitalized project implementation, we work with the communities to create a future in which the basis for a self-determined life is also secured for future generations.
...through projects with a sustainable impact.
Reforestation project
The reforestation project is all about planting trees in the Andes of Bolivia. The forest cover in the Andean highlands has been shrinking for centuries, causing erosion and drying out of the soil, among other things. In addition to large-scale reforestation, the project team is also aiming to create agroforestry areas, known as family plots. This should help families to live in a stable ecosystem despite climate change.

Nisaba - Digital project monitoring and management
Despite decades of development cooperation, the recording and understanding of project successes and the necessary transfer of knowledge between organizations is still difficult today. With Nisaba, we are therefore developing an open source software solution for NGOs that enables project data to be recorded, analysed and visualized together with the participants. This not only provides an accessible overview of the general project status and current e...
