The Brakna region is facing severe climatic changes characterized by the decrease and poor distribution of rainfall and the increase in temperature over the years. The expected increase in temperature and rainfall variability will also have a negative impact on natural resources, including water resources and water-dependent sectors such as agriculture, livestock and forestry, and therefore negative impact on agro-pastoral production. This 5 years project will address this with the objective to strengthen the climate change resilience of populations, ecosystems and agro-production systems within the Brakna region. The project will rely on an integrated approach (ecosystem based adaptation) thus ensuring interactions both within and between the natural ecosystem and the socio-economic system, bringing in investment opportunities that incentivize climate resilience. Based on its experience, the Execution Agency will be Naforé Association, and it will work in close collaboration with the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development. The project team will have a focal person responsible of the implementation of the ESMS measures with the support of IUCN team.
