1025 Downloads
The EUROCLIMA+ programme projects in the “Forests, Biodiversity and Ecosystems” (FBE) sector are implemented, in most cases, in regions with indigenous populations. Many of the implementing entities of these projects have extensive experience and knowledge of the problems of indigenous peoples and the promotion of their rights. Similarly, some of these entities have been working with indigenous peoples and local communities for a long time, collecting and systematizing their knowledge on vulnerability to climate change, in addition to identifying climate change mitigation and/or adaptation solutions that are currently being implemented, or finding new solutions together.

NbS have played a central role in the discussions at the Conferences of the Parties (COPs) in recent years, especially at the COP 26 in Glasgow, Scotland. Despite the fact that NbS are widely recognized as effective measures to address the challenges associated with climate change, there are still some challenges to their implementation.
