The BMU-IKI funded and GIZ-implemented project Ecosystem-based management and application of ecosystem values in two river basins in the Philippines recently translated three videos on Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) into Filipino, Bisaya and Hiligaynon. The videos are available with subtitles under this link on the YouTube-channel of the Philippine River Basin Control Office. They cover an overview of what Ecosystem-based Adaptation means and entails, and how it is done in practice. We hope you will enjoy this material and look forward to your comments and feedback!
