At People in Need , we understand Climate resilience as the “capacity of social-ecological system and its human components (individuals, households, communities) to anticipate and absorb external shocks and stresses while also maintaining the capacity for adaptation, and transformation toward low carbon societies”. In that sense, Nature-based Solution is a key approach to improve climate resilience and environmental protection. Read all about our efforts by tapping on the linked article below👇🏾

While being the less responsible for it, the southern part of the world is still the most affected by climate change and environmental degradation. In the countries where we, at People in Need work, we can see how this affects mostly the most vulnerable groups of the communities raising even more gender inequalities and affecting the livelihoods of people. #naturebasedsolutions can greatly contribute to improve #climateresilience and #environmentalprotection. Improving ecosystem services, promote restoration through a participatory approach where the communities are actually drivers of a positive change is what we want to do.
