"The rain has failed for 3 years. The only working well is 4.5 km away and the river is dry. They say the water is polluted and we shouldn’t drink it, but what choice do we have?" Hipolito, Las Joyas, Nicaragua
Amos Climate Justice seeks to develop a greater understanding of how to support highly impoverished rural communities as they face the impact of climate change.
Over the next 5 years we will be supporting seven rural communities in Teustepe, Nicaragua through our long-term partner CEPAD – a vibrant community-led organisation working with communities to identify their needs and provide training and resources, equipping communities to become self-sustaining.
Their needs include access to electricity, water and healthcare; better roads, farming skills, leadership training, youth work and women’s economic development.
Join us and journey with the people of Teustepe.
Our range of resource and fundraising packs, blog posts, downloads and products have been produced to help you find out more about Amos Climate Justice.

“Farmers proudly brought some of the fruits and vegetables they had managed to produce this harvest, many of which they had not been able to farm before. One farmer from a community in the Boaco communities proudly showed off his crop of tomatoes, which was a first for him, in such a dry region where they are generally not easy to grow.” Katie Hagley writes about how communities in Teustepe, Nicaragua are beginning to thrive.
Today marks two weeks since the hottest day in UK history. Unfortunately, whilst people across the country were doing everything they could to stay cool and hydrated, Northern Uganda has been feeling the effects of extreme weather more severely, with fatal consequences. Fleur Boya speaks to Immaculate Akello.
