Who We Are ?

Locally Led Action is a locally rooted, community-led humanitarian and development organisation established in Somalia on 21 December 2022. We exist to advance a different way of doing humanitarian and development work—one that places local people, knowledge, leadership and decision-making at the centre of change.

Climate Resilience and DRR

Child Protection, Gender Equality & Empowerment

Locally Led Action works with climate-affected communities to reduce vulnerability to drought, floods and other shocks. We strengthen community preparedness, early-warning and early-action systems and support locally developed climate adaptation solutions.

Our work includes: climate adaptation; community-based disaster risk reduction; early warning and anticipatory action; drought and flood preparedness; natural-resource management; climate awareness; and community resilience planning.

Our locally led approach: Communities identify their risks, contribute local and indigenous knowledge, establish priorities and lead preparedness and resilience actions.
