Our Approach
The RANTZ Project links climate action to everyday issues such as health, livelihoods, and food security, inspiring collective ownership of Nigeria’s climate future. By demystifying technical net-zero concepts, we enable communities to see themselves as central players in the transition.
Through town halls, media training, and IEC materials, we are changing attitudes, building public support, and fostering accountability from decision-makers.
