La justicia climática en una adaptación basada en ecosistemas: El caso de los municipios indígenas en la provincia de la Mosquitia, Honduras
El caso de Honduras / La Mosquitia ilustra la importancia de integrar las cuestiones de justicia en el proyecto durante las primeras fases de planificación. Es especialmente importante integrar estas cuestiones en las estructuras y procesos de gobernanza en la zona del proyecto, aunque la gestión del proyecto también debe tenerlas en cuenta. Los puntos de entrada para anclar estratégicamente las cuestiones de justicia incluyen el concepto del proyecto, la estructura de dirección, el sistema de seguimiento y evaluación (S&E) y el concepto de personal. Integrar las distintas dimensiones de la justicia (justicia de reconocimiento, justicia procesal y justicia distributiva) a través de estos puntos de entrada es un requisito previo clave para que la justicia se tenga en cuenta en la ejecución del proyecto.
La justicia climática en una adaptación basada en ecosistemas: El caso de la zona costera de Soc Trang, Vietnam
El caso de Vietnam / Soc Trang ilustra la importancia de la justicia climática como condición previa para proteger con éxito y de forma sostenible los manglares. Los manglares protegen la costa y a la población de tormentas e inundaciones. Además, el ecosistema proporciona otros beneficios colaterales, como el aumento de los ingresos a través de la pesca, al proporcionar zonas de cría, alimento, refugio y hábitat para una amplia gama de especies acuáticas. El caso pone de relieve cómo un enfoque de aplicación basado en la justicia reforzó la participación igualitaria y los beneficios de un enfoque de cogestión, que promovió activamente diferentes dimensiones de la justicia climática.
