Supporting the implementation of a climate-smart rural landscape in Colombia

Closed

LACIF and AFD assist the Government of Colombia in its policy shift to a more social and greener economy in order to improve the revenues and livelihoods of the population, notably in the Orinoquia basin and more generally in Colombia, while reducing their vulnerability and mitigating their contribution to climate change. The project supports the “Green Growth” strategy, which strengthens the capacities of local authorities and stakeholders in the Departments of Meta and Vichada in the formulation and development of their planning instruments to develop investments, always taking into account climate change impacts and mitigation opportunities. It also promotes investment in "climate-smart" activities in farming and forestry through adapted land-use management.
