The Green Opportunities
This pandemic has left us with immense economic and environmental uncertainty, but it also presents an opportunity for a better future. If we take the necessary steps to respond in an environmentally-minded way, then these crises can also create a more sustainable economic system for all of us. LDII is advocating for eco-friendly, long-term recovery measures that are both resilient and climate neutral. By investing in our future through green public-sector investment, we have the potential to bring about social change while mitigating the effects of climate change on our environment. It’s not going to be easy, but together we can rise to this challenge and reap the double dividend of a greener economy.
Resource-efficient technologies and sustainable solutions must be harnessed to bring about structural changes in industry and finance. Increasing the use of sustainable bonds and loans across all sectors, transitioning to a circular economy model, and building new green jobs are just a few of the necessary actions that need to be taken. Technology has enabled us to identify these solutions; now it is up to us to implement them in order to conserve our environment and protect our climate.

The ongoing conflicts and Human Injustices around the world have forced 117.2 million people to flee their homes, with 19 million coming from Eastern Africa (UNHCR) 2023. These significant displacements come with a heavy psychological toll and immense challenges that must now be navigated.
SSF works with social support centers to assist internally displaced individuals, as well as veterans of these wars, and provide necessary psychological assistance. Governmental institutions lack resources to offer aid needed and this can lead to an increase in tension between local and displaced populations, threatening integration efforts. Immediate access to proper social support is highly important for those affected by conflict.
SSF is intently focused on developing the psychological and social services in areas severely impacted by environmental devastation, war, and other trauma. By forging partnerships between regional governments, non-governmental organizations and universities to foster integration of psychosocial support into local networks, expert care is available from personnel with enhanced skills cultivated through focused training courses. The intent here is to provide superior service that extends beyond individual treatment.
The trainings offered by SSF aim to address complex issues in difficult times, but these efforts often come with great strain and few rewards. Working may be a way of giving back, but it is not without its difficulties. In essence, there is only so much one can do when faced with contentious matters in a divided community.
Geographical and environmental crises like droughts, disease outbreaks, and wars caused by resource scarcity can have a direct effect on societal interaction.
