In a significant step toward deepening collaborative climate resilience efforts, HATOF Foundation has officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Southern Volta Development Group (SOVODEG).
The MoU, signed on the 8th of July, 2025, formalizes the cooperation between HATOF and SOVODEG with a long term vision to support the protection and improvement of the marine and coastal environment, enhance the active and effective participation of the Southern Volta communities in national and global climate action and promote sustainable socio-economic development by leveraging business opportunities.
This partnership reflects a mutual commitment to strengthening environmental governance and advancing inclusive development models tailored to local contexts through joint projects focused on:
- Climate change adaptation and mitigation,
- Sustainable livelihoods,
- Community-led conservation, and
- Knowledge-sharing and advocacy.
“This is more than a formal agreement; it is a promise to communities that we are working together to ensure they thrive in the face of climate risks,” said by Dr. Samuel Dotse (PhD), speaking on behalf of HATOF Foundation.
We look forward to the impactful journey ahead with SOVODEG and remain committed to scaling solutions that bridge environmental protection with social and economic transformation.
