Protect our environment.
Empower women.
SOFFLECO advances climate justice and protects the Congo Basin by placing women at the heart of change.
Across the Congo Basin, women protect resources, feed families and pass on knowledge. Yet their voices are too often missing from decisions.
SOFFLECO creates the conditions for their experience to become agency through training, community organising, ecological projects and advocacy.
“Protecting the Congo Basin means recognising the leadership of the women who sustain it.”
Four currents, one transformation
From knowledge to action, from communities to policy.
Every intervention connects ecological urgency, social justice and local agency.
