The Esquich\u00e1 River micro-watershed (38 km2) in the upper part of the Coat\u00e1n River Basin is experiencing high levels of deforestation and erosion, especially in water recharge zones. The 20 local communities are seeing more landslides and crop losses due to climate variability.<\/p>\n

Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) is promoted through a process of governance strengthening and “action learning” aimed at diversifying productive practices and restoring degraded ecosystems for greater food and water security of communities. The solution combines increased dialogue, capacities and knowledge, with increasing environmental and social resilience, to achieve local impacts and up scaling.<\/p>\n

Efforts contribute to strengthening the Esquich\u00e1 River Micro-watershed Council as a platform for governance and the management of natural resources, while promoting agro-forestry systems and restoring forest cover in water catchment areas through natural regeneration, reforestation and community forestry nurseries.<\/p>\n
