New Publication: Synergies between adaptation, biodiversity and mitigation – How Ecosystem-based Adaptation can build bridges between Nationally Determined Contributions and the new Global Biodiversity Framework

A successful kick-off workshop for the ERA project (Enhancing Risk Assessments for Improved Country Risk Financing Strategies) was held in Bangkok, Thailand on May 15-16, 2023. The Department of Agriculture (DOA) and GIZ’s “Agri-Climate Risk Financing” project collaborated to host the event. The workshop introduced the ERA project and the ECA framework, and participants worked together to determine the scope of the risk assessment.

The new methodological guide to learn about common approaches on conducting socio-economic & ecosystem services analyses for agroecology projects is now online. To allow for better evidence-based decision making, this publication provides a methodological guidance for project implementers and researchers.

Soil protection and rehabilitation (SPR) technologies provide several advantages, including benefits for mitigation and adaptation. Two new publications on SPR provide a guide for systematically assessing its adaptation relevance. Additionally, an Excel tool is published to implement the approach.

Here you can find a compendium of existing tools/methods/guides for climate change adaptation and mitigation in agri-food systems and an interactive product landscape that complements the compendium and gives a visual overview of and easy access to the tools as well as additional relevant documents.
