ABOUT OCCE, LAGOS
Towards A Sustainable, Greater Lagos.
We are working every day to enable all players whose ambition is to ensure a zero carbon Lagos by 2050.
We are convinced that a prosperous and sustainable Lagos will involved the government, businesses, civil societies and the people. So through our various initiatives, we are changing behaviors and dialing up Circularity (Circular Economy) as the veritable tool of sustainably tackling climate change.
More than half of Lagos’s 21 million residents live in informal settlements, which renders them highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
Climate change threatens the general well-being of the Lagos ecosystem because food security and commercial activities will be hugely impacted with consequent increases in insecurity, loss of jobs, increased health risks, and reduced economic activities, which could set back the economic activities of the state.
