Illustrating Adaptation to Climate Change GRID-Arendal provided support to the Global Mountain Ecosystem-Based Adaptation Programme of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) by developing visual illustrations that help make the case why nature- based solutions should be a vital part of a broader climate adaptation strategy in the face of climate change. These illustrations were used in a series of learning briefs about ecosystem-based adaptation and in the report Making the Case for Ecosystem-based Adaptation: The Global EbA Programme in Nepal, Peru and Uganda jointly published by UNDP. Household Air Pollution GRID-Arendal completed a report called Survive Breathing – Reduce household air pollution to save lives and help the climate for the Norwegian Ministry ofEmail from UNDP Mountain EbA Programme
“GRID-Arendal has done an outstanding job
in translating all our guidance into stunning
visual descriptions of the very complex dynamics
between threats, impacts, EbA measures and
benefits generated in our three pilot countries
[Peru, Uganda and Nepal].”
