East African Sustainable Energy and Climate Change Action (EASE-CA)

East African Civil Society for Sustainable Energy and Climate Action (EASE&CA) was a three-year project (July 2019- July 2023) implemented in Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda under the support of CISU. The main objective of the EASE-CA project was to increase access to sustainable energy and other climate solutions to local communities in Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania with both women’s and men’s full and effective participation and leadership for improved livelihoods and reduction of poverty. This has been realized by combining Civil Society Organization (CSO) activities at local, national, and international levels in ways, where that reinforce each other. The EASE-CA project strengthened the national CSO networking and advocacy for increased targets and financing of local, sustainable, pro-poor, and gender responsive climate and energy solutions in Energy Technology Catalogue developed by EASE-CA project national development strategies and their implementation in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. The project also supported networking and participation of East African CSOs for exchange of experiences and to give voice to influence the development of the international framework for climate financing, including in the UN Framework for Climate Change Convention (UNFCCC).
