Rebuilding the lives of natural disaster survivors
Force of Nature Aid Foundation is a Malaysian nonprofit grant making agency dedicated to empowering survivors of natural disasters worldwide to rebuild their lives and reduce their vulnerability to disasters through initiatives that promote equitable and sustainable development.

Force of Nature is arguably the only grant maker in the developing world that concentrates on long-term disaster management and risk reduction.

Because we believe that the strongest force of nature is the strength of the human spirit, we focus on people-centred, long-term, post-disaster recovery initiatives that will reduce vulnerability and increase resilience.

Community-based Fisheries Management in Aceh

FON partners with WorldFish Centre (ICLARM) in a project called ‘Community-based Fisheries Management in Aceh’ to empower fishing communities through diversification of livelihood options and management of natural resources.

WorldFish Centre has just produced a short video documenting this project and their work in post-tsunami Aceh. You can view the video here.
