Environment
The sustainable management of natural resources provides for livelihoods and economic development. The impacts of climate change and, subsequently, increased natural disasters threaten the availability of and access to natural resources. Equitable natural resources governance, climate change adaptation and mitigation as well as disaster risk reduction, consequently, become an essential part of programs across different sectors.

Our solutions provide an integrative perspective into the landscape, taking into account trade-offs or synergies between different types of land use and the engagement of its actors in a structured dialogue.
Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation, Resilience
Climate change has severe impacts on all sectors of sustainable development and poses immense challenges to developing nations. Risha Solutions builds on cutting-edge climate data for its regions of work. This ensures that program design is climate-robust and provides climate change adaptation and mitigation options that build social, economic, and ecological resilience.
Disaster Risk Management
Mountainous countries are especially affected by natural disasters, such as landslides, mudflows, or flooding. We provide solutions that aim at reducing socio-economic vulnerabilities. The overall guidance for our solutions builds on the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction.
