Who we are
The African Climate Health & Environmental Alliance (ACHEA)
is a non-profit organization dedicated to building climate-resilient health systems across Africa. We operate at the intersection of climate change and public health, recognizing that a warming planet poses fundamental threats to human well-being—from vector-borne diseases to food insecurity and heat stress.

KEY PILLARS
Climate Action
Driving adaptation strategies, promoting clean energy adoption, and advancing climate-smart health initiatives.
Planetary Health
Restoring ecosystems, conserving biodiversity, and ensuring clean air and water for all communities.
Community Resilience
Strengthening health systems, fostering sustainable livelihoods, and empowering women and youth to lead.
The Challenge
The Crisis Intersection
Climate change threatens vulnerable communities and affects maternal and neonatal survival. Extreme heat increases preterm births, while water scarcity compromises hygiene during delivery. Coupled with food insecurity and floods that disrupt health services, these interconnected challenges demand a unified response.
