Guiding Principles
Community Ownership
If the community doesn’t own the process, the results won’t last. We support local institutions that remain long after our projects conclude.
Sustainability
Every intervention—from fuel-saving stoves to irrigation—is designed to be ecologically sound and economically self-sustaining.
Knowledge Sharing
We combine scientific expertise with indigenous knowledge, ensuring our methods are both modern and deeply rooted in the local context.
who we are
About us
Founded in 2000, the Sustainable Natural Resource Management Association (SUNARMA) is a registered NGO dedicated to finding sustainable solutions to the environmental and economic challenges faced by rural Ethiopians.
Our vision is a stable, productive environment where communities are empowered to manage their natural resources effectively. By combining local expertise with sustainable agricultural and forestry practices, we foster resilience, improve livelihoods, and restore the natural beauty of our landscape.
Our Approach
How We Make a Difference
Environmental Restoration
Combating land degradation through reforestation, riparian restoration, and soil and water conservation (terracing, check dams).
Sustainable Agriculture
Promoting conservation agriculture, organic farming, and agroforestry to boost household-level productivity.
Community Empowerment
Strengthening traditional forest institutions, providing skills training, and supporting women-led initiatives such as fuel-saving stove production and beekeeping.
Economic Resilience
Introducing village-level saving and loan schemes to create self-employment opportunities and break the cycle of poverty.

Testimonials
Voices from the Community
“Before the reforestation project, our stream used to run dry during the summer months. Now, the soil holds water, and our livestock have access to grazing land throughout the year.”
“The introduction of fuel-saving stoves has not only reduced the amount of wood we need to gather from the forest but has also improved the air quality inside our homes.”
