Sustainable Villages Honduras

Department of Santa Barbara
Honduras

For over 10 years Sustainable Villages Honduras and its predecessor organizations have worked to help families live a better life where they are … without having to migrate within or beyond Honduras.  

Honduras is one of the top three countries in the world at risk from long-term climate change listed in the Global Climate Risk Index published by Germanwatch. This rating covers a 20- year period from 1998 to 2017.  Drought is not the only effect of climate change, the unpredictability of the rains – either too much or too little --may decrease or even destroy the crop for that season.   Without learning new sustainable agricultural methods and using drought resistant seeds, families no longer feel secure in their ability to feed themselves.

Our program helps them face these three challenges of poverty, lack of water, climate change.
