Ecosystems protecting infrastructure and communities: lessons learned and guidelines for implementation

The publication provides a detailed description of the project’s operational approach and draws lessons from the case studies to inform and guide best practices to implement integrated ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction and ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA). It is intended for practitioners worldwide planning to initiate and/or scale-up ecosystembased measures for long-term resilience. It is expected that these practitioners may range from NGOs and government bodies within the communities of practice of conservation, humanitarian aid and disaster risk reduction, sustainable development and climate change adaptation.
