Mainstreaming EbA

Implementing organization: GIZ    Duration: 07/2015 - 06/2018 Main counterpart: IKI area: Adaptación







Initial situation 

The aim of the project is to provide evidence of the added value of ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) for climate change and to promote the implementation of EbA measures. In particular, this includes integrating EbA measures into public sector planning and decision-making processes, highlighting the added value of the EbA approach compared with “grey” measures.

The project operates within a cross-border learning and knowledge network in which ongoing IKI projects and expert groups (think tanks) also participate.

It supports ongoing work on methods for mainstreaming EbA, demonstrating the benefits of EbA, promoting capacity development in the field of mainstreaming, and channeling lessons learned into climate change negotiations.
