Unlocking Communities

Unlocking Communities (UC) trains and equips entrepreneurs in rural Haitian communities to build local businesses selling household products, such as ceramic water filters and clean cookstoves, which protect health, generate cost savings, and combat climate change while creating economic activity and livelihoods. 

Leveraging carbon credits to subsidize the price of these eco-friendly, life-saving products and offering customers microloans creates access for even the lowest income residents and builds economic, social, and environmental resilience for rural communities in one of the poorest, most vulnerable countries in the world.
