This journey explores ecosystem-based approaches to adapt to
changing environmental conditions from the project level to
policies. Participants will gain insights into guiding
principles; discussions will identify lessons learned from
communities in different ecosystems around the world including
effective tools as well as the main challenges and opportunities
that lie ahead. Key points that will be considered include: ·
How Ecosystem-based Adaptation helps to reduce the effects of
climate variability and climate change in different ecosystems
and communities of the world. · How to determine the
vulnerability of socio-ecological systems in different contexts
and how Ecosystem-based Adaptation can promote greater
resilience. · Ways in which Ecosystem-based Adaptation can be
mainstreamed in Ecosystem Management. We will conclude our
journey with concrete proposals to promote and encourage
enhanced use of ecosystem-based adaptation to promote greater
resilience to changing conditions. Friday, 7 September - The j
