About FCAAI
Advancing Climate Resilience, Sustainable Agriculture, and Community-Led Development
Who We Are
The Foundation for Climate Action and Agriculture Initiative (FCAAI) is a mission-driven, action-focused organisation dedicated to delivering practical climate adaptation, sustainable agriculture, and resilience solutions for vulnerable and underserved communities. FCAAI works at the intersection of environmental protection, food systems transformation, and inclusive development, translating global and national commitments into measurable local impact.
We are a community of practitioners, researchers, and community partners united by the belief that climate change must be met with solutions that are evidence-based, locally grounded, and scalable. Our work strengthens livelihoods, safeguards ecosystems, and expands opportunities for women, youth, and marginalised populations to participate in climate action and economic transformation.
FCAAI is anchored in Nigeria with growing partnerships across West Africa, and we collaborate with communities, government agencies, development partners, civil society, and private actors to co-create sustainable outcomes.
Our Mission
FCAAI exists to champion grassroots climate action and agricultural development by empowering local leaders, deploying community-driven innovation, and partnering with institutions to scale impact that is just, inclusive, and lasting.
Our Vision
To build a climate-resilient Nigeria where vulnerable communities, especially women and youth, lead the restoration of ecosystems, transform agriculture, and secure sustainable livelihoods.
Core Values
People-Centred Partnership
Communities are co-designers, not beneficiaries. We prioritise local voices, leadership, and ownership at every stage of programme development and implementation.
Integrity & Accountability
We uphold ethical standards, transparency, and responsible stewardship of resources, remaining accountable to communities, partners, and funders alike.
Evidence & Learning
Our solutions are grounded in data, research, and iterative learning, enabling us to adapt and achieve meaningful, measurable outcomes.
Inclusion & Equity
We centre women, youth, and underserved populations, ensuring access to opportunities and decision-making in climate solutions and economic systems.
Collaborative Action
We foster partnerships across sectors and disciplines, recognising that resilient communities emerge from collective, integrated efforts.
Our Strategic Pillars
FCAAI’s work is anchored in three interconnected pillars:
Climate Action & Environmental Resilience
We support community-led climate adaptation and ecosystem restoration, with a focus on coastal resilience, nature-based solutions, and climate risk reduction that is scientifically informed and locally relevant.
Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems
Our approach to agriculture emphasises climate-smart practices, reduced post-harvest losses, clean energy integration, and market-inclusive innovations that increase productivity and incomes for smallholder farmers.
Community Resilience & Social Inclusion
FCAAI expands access to essential services—such as water, health, digital tools, and livelihood opportunities—while building local capacity and leadership that fosters inclusive development.
How We Work
Our programme implementation follows a structured, evidence-based logic:
01
Participatory Engagement
Co-design solutions with community stakeholders, ensuring relevance and ownership.
02
Data & Innovation
Apply appropriate technologies, research insights, and climate data to guide decisions.
03
Implementation Excellence
Deliver programmes that are scalable, cost-effective, and measurable.
04
Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning

05
Knowledge Sharing

Our Impact Commitment
FCAAI is committed to tracking measurable outcomes that demonstrate real change on the ground. We monitor progress using clear indicators, community feedback mechanisms, and transparent reporting. This ensures our programmes are accountable, outcomes-focused, and continuously improving.
Our Global & National Alignment
FCAAI’s strategy and programmes align with:
Nigeria’s National climate adaptation and food security agendas
Global frameworks such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
International best practices in climate resilience and agricultural innovation
This alignment expands our relevance, enhances partner engagement, and supports scalable impact beyond local contexts.
