Summary
The Upper-Ewaso Ng’iro North Ecosystem supports 1.2 million people, critical habitats, and globally-important wildlife. Unsustainable use and climate change have caused natural resource and water scarcity, leading to competition and conflict. This project provides a nature-based solution to these diverse challenges. Building capacity for sustainable natural resource management, facilitating adoption of nature-based solutions to deliver economic benefits, and restoring habitat, will increase water security, build resilience to climate
change, and increase peaceful co-existence for people and wildlife.
