CAFOD

Climate and environment approach and practice paper

6 November 2025

This paper has been written to highlight how CAFOD and our partners approach programming on climate and environmental issues.

The first section outlines CAFOD’s commitments, strategy and risk management processes, as well as how we understand our environmental work.

The second section provides practical examples of CAFOD's and our partners’ contributions to responding to the cry of the earth under three of our six thematic areas:

  • climate and environmental justice

  • resilient livelihoods

  • emergency preparedness, response and recovery.
