Abstract: Abstract Since 2011, the ‘Service Agency Communities in One World’ (SKEW), a sub-organisation of Engagement Global gGmbH, has been running the funding project ‘Municipal Climate Partnerships’. Since the start of the project, a local climate partnership has been established between the Enzkreis County in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, and the Masasi District in southern Tanzania. The chapter describes the objectives of the funding project on the part of the SKEW and the related successes in the municipal partnership between Enzkreis and Masasi. Due to the unstable electricity supply in Tanzania, the projects focus on the construction of solar power systems for health and education facilities. The most recent project is the construction of a mud-brick environmental education centre in the town of Masasi to establish climate change and adaptation issues locally. In 2020, the climate partnership supported by the SKEW has finally grown into a very active municipal partnership.
