Investments will include a variety of green infrastructure measures, sustainable and climate-smart agricultural practices, and livelihoods diversification. Green infrastructure will be designed in conjunction with gray infrastructure to optimize the functionality, cost-effectiveness, and resilience of the integrated natural and built system.
The project is quite comprehensive, involving capacity building that supports coastal management, and the implementation of coastal protection and green infrastracture. This will include restoration and rehabilitation of coral, wetlands, and sea grass
The project will promote green infrastructure technologies for seafood production that support broader ecosystem services and coastal defenses, such as mangrove rehabilitation, sea grass, and oyster beds. Importantly, the design of coastal infrastructure will aim to optimize adaptation benefits and avoid maladaptation, including by linking fish habitat restoration to nature‐based coastal protection solutions and ensuring climate‐resilient value chain infrastructure development.
