Development of a digital platform for the visualisation and socialisation of information on Climate Change in Ecuador.
This action contributes to the fulfilment of the commitments assumed by Ecuador in the framework of the Paris Agreement, as it will allow strengthening the National Climate Change Registry of the Government of Ecuador through the generation and monitoring of information on climate projections, vulnerability and adaptation to climate change.
Euroclima+ support through this action allows the monitoring, visualisation, socialisation and transfer of knowledge on Climate Change adaptation, through a geo-visor tool at the service of the different stakeholders: public administrations, scientific community, planners, decision-makers and other international actors. It facilitates decision-making aimed at reducing the vulnerability of the country's human and natural systems (related to priority sectors for adaptation in Ecuador) in order to improve the adaptive capacities of key local and sectoral actors, and to facilitate the insertion of the adaptive variable in planning instruments of Decentralised Autonomous Governments and sectoral bodies.
Accurate knowledge of future climate estimates and knowledge transfer are essential factors in assessing the impact and vulnerability of climate-sensitive sectors, and in identifying adaptation measures so that the monitoring and sharing of this information will have collateral benefits in the long term, avoiding human, natural and material losses; generating economic benefits, reducing risks, increasing productivity and stimulating innovation; with environmental, social and cultural benefits.
