Summary
The Rushebeya-Kanyabaha wetland is vital for Endangered Grey Crowned Cranes. We will scale our integrated human and environmental health approach to landscape level, and strengthen human and ecosystem resilience against climate shocks. Through an enhanced and expanded programme of wetland and crane conservation, climate-smart agricultural livelihoods, and healthcare actions, we will reduce anthropogenic pressures on the wetland, build the climate resilience of 30,000 people who live in its catchment, and conserve Grey Crowned Cranes and other threatened species.
