Major new project to use nature-based solutions to help Laos adapt to climate change
Monday, December 2, 2019
- 10 per cent of Laos’ population will benefit from a new project using nature-based solutions to reduce urban flooding.
- The project is part of a much larger ‘paradigm shift’ in climate adaptation, from hard ‘grey’ infrastructure to integrated solutions that includes ‘green’ infrastructure.
- It is the largest ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) project in Laos, and the first-ever urban EbA project to be approved by the Green Climate Fund.
