Ilé ọba tó jó, ẹwà ló bù kún un.
‘When the king’s palace burns, it is rebuilt more beautiful.’
Loss is not the end of the story. Recovery can restore what was taken, and more.

Our mission
To protect and restore the mental wellbeing of marginalised people affected by climate-related displacement in Nigeria through:

Egbe bere, ugo bere; nke sị ibe ya ebela, nku kwaa ya.
‘Let the kite perch and let the eagle perch. Whichever says the other shall not, may its wing break.’
There is room for everyone. Excluding others harms the whole community.
