برنامج الحد من الفحم وسبل العيش البديلة

In 2012 UN Security Council Resolution 2036 banned the export and import of charcoal from Somalia. PROSCAL was formed at Somalia's request to coordinate international support for the ban, reduce environmental destruction from charcoal production and minimise the risk of local conflict arising from the trade.

It is an interagency programme implemented by the Federal Republic of Somalia with UNEP, UNDP and FAO, funded by the European Union and the governments of Sweden and Italy, using the UN Joint Programming modality.
