Welcome to Shout Climate Change Africa

Protecting Sierra Leone’s Coastlines. Restoring Lives.

Climate change is no longer a future threat. Along the coast of Freetown—from Sugar Land to Lakka—communities are losing land, homes, livelihoods, and history to coastal erosion and rising sea levels.

SCCA exists to turn awareness into action.

About SCCAIN

SHOUT CLIMATE CHANGE AFRICA (SCCA)

is a non-governmental, non-political, non-ethnical, and non-racial organization committed to climate action across Africa.

Our message is simple and urgent: “Shout Now or Never.” Climate change affects everyone, and silence accelerates damage.

SCCA works with communities, partners, and institutions to address climate challenges that threaten sustainable development, livelihoods, and ecosystems.

The Problem

Coastal Erosion & Sea Level Rise in Sierra Leone

Climate change has severely impacted coastal communities in Freetown, particularly between Goderich and Lakka.

Rising sea levels have caused massive coastal erosion, leading to:

  • Loss of valuable land and property

  • Destruction of important structures such as St. Michael Lodge

  • Disappearance of once-beautiful beaches

  • Decline in tourism and local income generation

  • Increased poverty and vulnerability in coastal communities

Unchecked, the sea continues to eat into the land—creating a crisis that grows more expensive and destructive with time.

Why Climate Action Matters

Sustainable Development Goal 13: Climate Action calls for immediate action to combat climate change and its impacts.

Failure to act results in:

  • Community underdevelopment

  • Loss of livelihoods

  • Environmental degradation

  • A continuous cycle of poverty

Climate action is not optional. It is essential for survival, resilience, and sustainable development.

Our Flagship Project

Restoration and Reclamation of Coastal Land

Project Area: Sugar Land to Lakka, Western Area, Sierra Leone

This project focuses on:

  • Stopping further coastal erosion

  • Reclaiming land and beaches already lost to the sea

  • Restoring damaged ecosystems and biodiversity

  • Protecting tourism assets and community livelihoods

The project aims to prevent a growing environmental and socio-economic disaster while restoring the natural beauty and functionality of Sierra Leone’s coastline.

A detailed project document is available for partners and stakeholders interested in supporting or collaborating with SCCA.
