Swedish-Somali Environmental Co-operation SWE- GOLIS

Swe-Golis was founded by Swedish professionals who responded to the needs of rural Somalilanders who reported that their streams were drying up, their food supply was less secure, and they had to walk further and further to get firewood for fuel and fencing. Swe-Golis encouraged the local communities to work together to grow seedlings and plant trees to bind the soil, store rainwater, provide food and firewood, and receive a small monetary token for their work.
Our Values
1. Love for environment conservation
2. Self and community empowerment
