The Centre, since its inception, has been launching various environmental action programs in partnership with community organizations. Community-based solid waste management is one of the earliest programs launched in Lalitpur sub-metropolis in 1991. In recent years, climate change has become a serious threat to food security and livelihoods, and accordingly, adaptation to climate change has become a priority program area for CEAPRED. Promotion of local innovation, dissemination of traditional knowledge and technologies, sustainable natural resource management applying integrated pest management and sustainable soil management practices, raising mass awareness, organic farming, and varietal and cropping system improvement, including identification and popularization of local crop species and cultivars are some of the strategies adopted by CEAPRED to cope with the adverse impacts of climate change
