International Climate Initiative’s Post

🌍🌱 Celebrating World Mangrove Day! 🌱🌍 Mangroves play a crucial role in #adapting to climate change by protecting coastlines, sequestering carbon, and supporting #biodiversity. The International Climate Initiative (IKI) champions these vital ecosystems through ecosystem-based adaptation #EbA projects, enhancing resilience against climate impacts. Through strategic #funding & international #collaboration, IKI helps vulnerable regions develop robust climate adaptation plans. From safeguarding mangroves in Asia and South America to promoting global resilience, IKI's efforts are pivotal in the fight against climate change. Let's continue to support and protect our mangroves for a sustainable future! 🌿💚 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dkdr934e Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz, nukleare Sicherheit und Verbraucherschutz (BMUV) UN Biodiversity Photo: stock.adobe.com/momo5287

Selected IKI impacts, 2015–2022 Based on it's Standard Indicators the IKI records selected results across the entire funding programme. (More about the IKI SI here: https://lnkd.in/d3iJhf8a) The current analysis was based on all IKI projects that provided plausible target or actual values for the Standard Indicators in the reporting period 2015 to 2022. This includes not only completed projects, but also projects that are still in the implementation phase. For an in-depth analysis, we provide you with 5 chapters full of data, facts & figures: 1. Standard Indicators on greenhouse gas mitigations 2. Standard Indicators on ecosystems 3. Standard Indicators on adaptation measures 4. Standard Indicator ‘SI 4 - Capacity People’ 5. Standard Indicator ‘SI 5 - Leveraged capital’ ➡➡ https://lnkd.in/dZpM4QBp
