dc.description | Timor-Leste is home to a wide range of globally
important ecosystems, including tropical
rainforests, mangroves, and wetlands. These
landscapes face multiple threats, including
climate change and unsustainable agricultural
practices, with approximately 90% of the
forests across the country having been cleared
or logged.
This project is using Ecosystem-based
Adaptation (EbA) to increase climate
resilience and reduce land degradation in rural
communities in Timor-Leste.
The project’s main approaches include: i)
improving national and sub-national adaptation
planning; ii) restoring ecosystems in water
catchments; iii) developing and implemneting
agricultural
management systems; iv)
provision of water to rural communities; and v)
expansion of a climate-smart agribusiness. | en_US |
