Tambanokano Joins She Wins Climate Southeast Asia 2025

We’re thrilled to share that Tambanokano Aqua Farm has been selected to join the She Wins Climate Acceleration Program for Southeast Asia 2025 — a global initiative led by the International Finance Corporation (IFC) to empower women-led climate startups.

About She Wins Climate

She Wins Climate is a 12-month acceleration program designed to help women entrepreneurs scale their climate innovations and become investment-ready. Launched at COP28 and backed by the governments of Canada, Australia, and Ireland — with support from We-Fi, New Energy Nexus, and the Umbrella Facility for Gender Equality — the program bridges the funding and visibility gap for women-led climate ventures.

In Southeast Asia, She Wins Climate supports up to 25 early-stage women-led startups tackling urgent climate challenges. Participants receive:

• Tailored business training and coaching

• Access to climate-focused investors

• Networking with a global community of innovators

• Enhanced visibility to potential partners and markets

Why Tambanokano?

Our mission — More food. More livelihood. Less waste. — directly addresses climate resilience and environmental sustainability. Through our mud crab “condominium” grow-out system, we:

• Repurpose materials to reduce waste

• Optimize aquaculture for lower environmental impact

• Create sustainable livelihoods for coastal communities facing climate threats

Joining She Wins Climate allows us to amplify our impact, refine our technology, and connect with global partners who share our vision for a healthier planet and stronger communities.

What’s Next

Over the next year, we’ll engage in workshops, mentorship sessions, and investor meetings that will help bring Tambanokano to more coastal areas in the Philippines and beyond. We’re excited to learn, grow, and share our journey with you every step of the way.

💚 Here’s to empowering women, building climate solutions, and creating a future where innovation and sustainability go hand in hand.
