Projeto

Indigenous-led actions and solutions for food-water-energy sustainability

Resumo

The project will quantify the contributions of nature-based solutions to mitigating climate changes such as declining precipitation and hotter temperatures through using existing data sets and compare this evidence to what local communities express. It will examine ways in which their agriculture and agroforestry practices can be used to restore degraded areas and through ecosystem modeling examine whether they can enhance the cooling functions of forests thereby mitigating climate change.
