Nuru

Nuru is a global collective working in conflict-affected regions hit hardest by climate change — areas often abandoned by other organizations and governments as too unstable. Nuru partners with local leaders to strengthen livelihoods and market systems, helping farmers and rural families thrive while repairing social fabric and building pathways to peace.


Investment Rationale

Extreme poverty is concentrated in climate- and conflict-affected rural regions that are often overlooked — yet critical to preventing instability and displacement. Nuru invests early, building climate resilience by reducing poverty.

  • Resilience at the root: Addressing extreme poverty strengthens communities' ability to adapt to climate change.

  • Durable gains: Regenerative agriculture raises yields and incomes while improving food security.

Impact & Outcomes 

Nuru equips smallholder farmers and cooperatives with climate-smart agriculture, regenerative practices, and hyper-local weather forecasting — helping communities adapt climate shocks while increasing productivity and incomes.

  • Demonstrated resilience gains: Most Nuru-supported farmers adopt multiple climate-smart practices, strengthening yields and income stability.

  • Better climate decision-making: Partnerships with services like Ignitia enable farmers to plan around weather volatility, reduce crop losses, and protect incomes.
