Details
This project will supports communities in coastal areas in PNG and Solomon Islands to build resilience to climate change impacts by managing and protecting coastal ecosystems. The project is focused on protecting mangroves and coastal forests, and developing sustainable livelihoods derived from these healthy ecosystems such as honey production and carbon market investments.
Meaningful participation of women and people with disabilities in climate related decision-making and interventions is a particular focus, as is upskilling youth to engage with nature-based solutions.
This project is funded under Component 2 of CRxN via the Pacific NbS Challenge.
