The Ecosystem Based Adaptation (EBA) Project for Mountain Ecosystems in Nepal, Peru and Uganda aims to strengthen the capacity of these three highly vulnerable countries to deal with the impacts of climate change. The project targets to strengthen ecosystem resilience and reduce the vulnerability of local communities with a particular emphasis on mountain regions.
The project will create new opportunities for experimental learning between regions and among countries through parallel and cooperative development and application of methodologies and tools and the implementation of pilot projects. It will shorten the learning curve of local and national institutions and fast-track the transfer of knowledge related to building ecosystem resilience.
The project is funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) and is being jointly implemented by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
