Founded in 2025 and registered with the Federal Government of Somalia and regional authorities, the Transformative and Resilience Initiatives for Climate Change (TRIC) Consortium is a non-profit organization comprising of 9 non-governmental organizations. Operating within the Somalia Support Services (SSS) Cluster mechanism across regions such as Banadir, South West, Galmudug, Hirshabelle, Jubbaland, and Somalia, TRIC aims to drive transformative change by delivering sustainable, community-tailored solutions to address Somalia’s unique climate challenges. Climate change poses an existential threat to Somalia, exacerbating existing socio-economic vulnerabilities, political instability, and resource limitations. Rising temperatures, prolonged droughts, erratic rainfall, and extreme weather events like floods disproportionately impact at-risk populations, including children, women, internally displaced persons (IDPs), and agro-pastoral communities.

TRIC seeks to mitigate these impacts by fostering resilience, protecting ecosystems, and advocating for inclusive policies and international support. Through its position at the intersection of science, policy, and community engagement, the Consortium provides scalable, innovative solutions to empower vulnerable communities and ensure no one is left behind in the fight against climate change. By collaborating with national and international civil society organizations, TRIC works to bridge gaps and deliver impactful interventions that enable communities to thrive in a rapidly changing environment.
