This workshop was organized as part of the project on the theme: "Presentation and Prioritization of Nature-Based Solutions for the Implementation of Priority Nature-Based Soil, Water, and Land Management Practices Through Support for Capacity Building for Local Authorities and Communities." The workshop was attended by nearly thirty individuals from various government departments at both the central and hinterland levels (Berbérati), as well as representatives of Central African civil society organizations (NGOs) and academics.
The objectives of this workshop were to:
- Validate the national inventory of integrated water resource management practices.
- Prioritize integrated water resource management practices relevant to flood and erosion risk reduction.
- Strengthen local technical capacity for the design and implementation of nature-based solutions.
Following this workshop, the national inventory document of locally identified, tested, and evaluated NBS was validated by various stakeholders in the Central African Republic.
The workshop was organized as part of the Urban Flood and Gully Erosion Risk Management Project in the Congo Basin, implemented by Climate Change Africa Opportunities (CCAO) and OCA Global and funded by the Global Center on Adaptation (GCA) and the World Bank (WB).
