Water, Healthy Ecosystems & Climate Mitigation/Adaption
Water, Healthy Ecosystems & Climate Mitigation/Adaption
We experience severe impacts of climate change through water, especially in water availability and quality. In many regions, climate change intensifies water scarcity, heavy rainfalls and flood events. Effects are already visible across the economy. Ecosystem-based approaches strengthen water measures to reduce GHG emissions and adapt to climate change. Moreover, the protection and restoration of freshwater ecosystems goes beyond climate change effects and has positive effects on biodiversity and human well-being. Therefore, German development cooperation supports actions to strengthen climate resilience and biological diversity through policies, technical and nature-based solutions.
