Objetivo General:
To restore ecosystem health of upland-coastal environments to strengthen marine-coastal climate resilience while improving sustainable livelihood opportunities of communities.
Objetivos Específicos:
  1. Build technical & social capacity of communities/farmers to rehabilitate upland & downstream ecosystems by implementing EbA-climate smart solutions
  2. Strengthen existing livelihood opportunities and generate alternatives based on the implementation of EbA-climate smart interventions
  3. Disseminate the climate smart approaches using innovative approaches within project countries and the region to promote wider interest and uptake of EbA and climate risk reduction strategies; and especially wide-spread ‘common knowledge’ of vetiver grass and the Vetiver system as a nature-based EbA tool ‘available to all’
  4. Complete stakeholder engagement, development of agreements and project coordination and logistics with partners, contractors, collaborators and community groups
Resultados Esperados:
  1. Capacity of 80 stakeholders in project communities to rehabilitate upland -coastal-marine ecosystems & adopt climate resilient agricultural practices strengthened
  2. Community stakeholders have enhanced opportunities to generate green and/or nature-based livelihood alternatives from vetiver grass and climate smart solutions
  3. Information and evidence-based experiences to enhance dissemination, replication and mainstreaming of CSS and EbA solutions in the Region strengthened
  4. Project implementation coordinated across the 4 countries with multiple partners will result in the mainstreaming of CSS and EbA solutions
