The Resilient Landscapes and Livelihoods Project of Ethiopia has the objectives to improve climate resilience, land productivity and carbon storage, and increase access to diversified livelihood activities in selected rural watersheds. This project is comprised of four components: (1) Green infrastructure and resilient livelihoods component will support the restoration of degraded landscapes in selected watersheds and help build resilient livelihoods on this newly productive foundation.

The proposed Project Development Objective (PDO) is to promote integrated landscape management and
restoration in targeted areas of El Salvador. The project will help promote improved integrated landscape management through agroforestry activities and mangrove restoration.
