The Amina LIVE Foundation Climate, Sustainability and Biodiversity Programme focuses on building ethical, evidence-informed leadership and stewardship among women and youth to respond to climate change, environmental degradation, and biodiversity loss. The programme recognizes that sustainable development depends not only on technical solutions, but on leadership, values, and decision-making capacity at community, institutional, and policy levels.

The Programme

The Amina LIVE Foundation Climate, Sustainability, and Biodiversity Programme brings together emerging leaders, practitioners, and partners to strengthen leadership for climate resilience, environmental sustainability, and biodiversity conservation. The objective of the programme is to equip women and youth with the knowledge, skills, and platforms needed to engage meaningfully with climate and environmental challenges, influence decision-making, and lead responsible, long-term solutions. The programme emphasizes leadership, stewardship, and accountability in addressing climate risks and protecting natural ecosystems.

Our approach

The programme will be implemented through collaboration with research institutions, development partners, government agencies, civil society organizations, and the private sector, both locally and internationally. The programme will entail leadership and capacity-building initiatives focused on climate, sustainability, and biodiversity; evidence-informed learning and reflection to support effective decision-making; community engagement and collaborative action to promote sustainable practices and platforms for dialogue, partnership, and collective responsibility across sectors. Through this approach, the Foundation aims to strengthen people-centred leadership that translates climate and biodiversity knowledge into practical, inclusive, and lasting impact.
