Our Areas of Action

Eight complementary areas of action serving the environment and communities of Chad.

Environmental Protection

We work to preserve natural ecosystems: preventing environmental risks, monitoring fragile areas and directing people toward existing protection mechanisms.

Reforestation

We organise tree-planting campaigns with local communities to restore degraded soils and fight deforestation.

Combating Desertification

We support rural communities in land restoration and sustainable soil management to slow the advance of the desert.

Waste Management

We promote sorting, collection and responsible treatment of waste, with pilot community composting projects.

Biodiversity Protection

We carry out monitoring and awareness activities around wetlands and local species, working with fishers and herders.

Environmental Awareness

We run workshops in schools, markets and neighbourhoods to inform people about actions that protect the environment.

Combating Climate Change

We raise awareness of the effects of climate change in Chad and promote adaptation practices among vulnerable communities.

Sustainable Development

We support communities toward economic and social practices that respect the environment and its resources.

A coordinated approach

Areas of action that reinforce one another

Raising awareness without acting on the ground, or planting trees without supporting communities over time, is not enough. ANPETD organises its areas of action around participatory monitoring of every project.
