Natural Resource Management in a Changing Climate in Mali

The objective of the project “Natural Resource Management in a Changing Climate in Mali” is to expand the adoption of sustainable land and water management (SLWM) practices in climate vulnerable targeted communes in Mali. The Government of Mali aims to achieve this through the implementation of capacity building, biodiversity conservation, and support to poverty reduction activities applying an ecosystem-based adaptation approach. This approach will enable project beneficiaries in 14 communities across three provinces to adapt to climate change and ultimately to increase their resilience. The project will also contribute to the objectives of the Sahel and West Africa Program (SAWAP) of expanding SLWM in targeted landscapes and in climate vulnerable areas of the West African and Sahelian countries.
