Climate Action & Disaster Risk Reduction
We support communities in preparing for and adapting to the impacts of climate change and natural disasters. Our programs include community-based disaster risk reduction, climate-resilient infrastructure, environmental protection, and capacity-building initiatives. By targeting vulnerable populations, including crisis-affected communities and women-led households, we help protect lives, livelihoods, and critical assets while promoting sustainable environmental practices that build long-term resilience.
How we work
DHDO works with vulnerable and crisis-affected communities across Afghanistan to improve livelihoods, strengthen climate resilience, empower women, expand access to education and skills, improve water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), enhance food security and agriculture, and support civil society development. Through integrated humanitarian and development programs, DHDO promotes sustainable solutions that reduce vulnerability, build community resilience, and support inclusive and long-term development.
