About Us

The Earth is facing extraordinary challenges with unprecedented severe weather events. Those living in poverty—who have contributed the least to the climate crisis—are often the most vulnerable and least equipped to cope with its impacts. Meanwhile, the ongoing destruction of natural ecosystems and the excessive use of natural resources continue to exacerbate climate change. EuroBalkans Foundation unites a diverse team of experts from South Eastern Europe with experience in several fields. Their work covers a wide range of issues, including food and land management, air quality, energy, sustainable development and finance. Our team conducts initiatives locally and regionally to address fundamental human needs, restore and protect nature and foster resilient communities.
