A group known as Participatory Approach to Climate and Environmental Protection (PACE), has called for stronger climate policies and greater public involvement toward mitigating the challenges of climate change.

Mr Auwalu Hamza, who is the Kano State team lead of the organisation, made the call yesterday in Kano in an interview. He was speaking in commemoration of the 2025 World Environment Day.

Hamza said that although experts had continued to highlight the importance of the day, it remained a reminder that addressing climate change should not be left to government alone.

“Mitigating climate change is a collective responsibility. “Government must play its part by enacting and enforcing sound policies and regulations, as well as building effective institutions,” he said.

According to him, the private sector and individuals also have significant roles to play in tackling climate challenges.

“Individuals must take ownership of the issue because climate change directly affects their health, livelihoods and general well-being,” he added.

Hamza stressed the need to build resilient systems that would strengthen democratic institutions and promote inclusive economic growth.

He noted that PACE, in collaboration with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), operates at the intersection of governance and climate, supporting Nigeria’s response to climate-related challenges. Hamza further explained that the day was a timely reminder of the shared responsibility in protecting the environment and ensuring a sustainable future.
