The Food Security & Climate Change unit facilitates and provides technical advice to a portfolio of World Vision projects spanning the globe. All projects are driven from a grassroots level in the communities, and most mitigate climate change and help communities to adapt to a changing climate. They deliver responsive solutions that promote the design, implementation and transfer of renewable and low-emissions technologies to the poor, as well as helping communities to access a variety of funding opportunities. The team supports a range of high-quality social food security and climate change projects across Africa, South America and the Asia-Pacific region.
