Upscaling ecosystem-based adaptation to enhance ecosystem services and community adaptive capacity in Tanzania's Greater Serengeti Ecosystem.

The project objective is to create a transformative change in the climate resilience of rural crop and livestock farmers in the GSE by creating a sustainable model for upscaling successful Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) and community-based land management. The sustainability of project interventions will be facilitated by unlocking finance for climate adaptation at a local level. This sustainability will be underpinned by support for climate-resilient livelihood options and restoration of degraded landscapes.

By supporting improved resource management and enabling sustainable community livelihoods, the project will strengthen the resilience of crop and livestock farmers in the GSE to climate change-induced droughts and floods. As a core element, the preferred solution will prioritize community ownership of locally-led adaptation solutions, thereby ensuring every intervention can be continued in the long term.
