climate change internship project. The three-year Groen Sebenza internships are placing 18 young black professionals in Sanbi and its partner institutions across South Africa. Of the 18 interns, 12 are young women.
In the Namakwa district, Sanbi has supported community-based interventions that have introduced hardier livestock breeds and helped farmers develop climate-resistant grazing plans for their animals. Food security and livelihoods have been improved through the establishment of communal gardens in the rural villages of the Mopani district. Most of these communal gardens are managed by women-led cooperatives.
Sanbi’s climate change adaptation work is about focus, intention and building capacity. It prioritises gender mainstreaming; it works alongside communities and in partnership with communities to manage climate change risk and help people – especially women and the youth – adapt to the effects of climate change. It provides rural South African women with the means for sustainable production, consumption and land use, giving them tools for climate-resilient livelihood practices.
