closed

The Community-Based Land Management (Global Environment Facility Trust Fund Grant) Project for the Republic of Guinea aims to integrate the ecological, social and economic dimensions of land degradation to ensure full participation and cooperation at all levels. Specifically, the GEF will support (1) capacity building of communities to promote new land management techniques, (2) implementation of micro-projects having a positive impact on productive land and associated ecosystems, (3) capacity building of decentralized agents of the relevant technical ministries as appropriate, and (4) development of methodologies for environmental information management and support for the exchange of information to encourage a holistic SLM approach throughout There are three project components that support a local investment fund, capacity building for local development, and project monitoring and coordination.
