This publication explores the perceptions of local communities regarding the Green Gicumbi Project, a key initiative in Rwanda's response to climate change challenges. The project is part of Rwanda's broader national strategy to enhance resilience and promote sustainable development in regions vulnerable to climate impacts. By focusing on mitigation and adaptation measures, Green Gicumbi aims to improve ecosystem health, increase agricultural productivity, and support local livelihoods. However, the project's success depends heavily on community engagement and alignment with local priorities. This study delves into how residents perceive the project's relevance, effectiveness, and impact on their daily lives. Insights gained will help policymakers and implementers fine-tune approaches, ensuring that climate interventions not only address environmental goals but also empower communities, fostering a collaborative pathway toward sustainable change.
