Video: “Mainstreaming Ecosystem-based Adaptation – Learning from examples within a community of practice”

Home > Online Sessions > Video: “Mainstreaming Ecosystem-based Adaptation – Learning from examples within a community of practice”

This video introduces the concept of Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) and offers country-specific examples. It further introduces the role of an international community of practice as an expert network to support mainstreaming into policies, plans and practical implementation.

 

Part 1 explains the importance of ecosystems for people and their importance within environmental and sectoral policies at international and national level.

Part 2 illustrates practical examples from mountain to marine ecosystems.

Part 3 provides insights into the knowledge exchange formats of the community of practice.

 

The video was published by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection (BMUV) under its International Climate Initiative (IKI).
