The project sought to empower local communities in southern Namibia to manage their natural resources in a sustainable way, to improve their livelihoods and become more resilient to external factors such as climate change and food insecurity. The initiative also sought to stimulate the development of income-generating activities to decrease human pressure on natural resources and, through awareness and education. The overall goal of the initiative was that the livelihood level of poor rural people in southern Namibia be improved and they be better prepared to cope with global challenges such as climate change. When the agreement between SDC and CI was concluded it was anticipated that the project would be implemented by CI, however the Namibian Government proposed to CI that the project should be implemented through the Government’s Small Grants Programme (SGP) mechanism which has been used successfully by other aid agencies to distribute grants.
