Project Components
The MaWRiN Project is structured around three core components designed to build climate resilience through institutional strengthening, community engagement, and knowledge sharing.
Component 1: Enabling environment for mainstreaming climate change
Enabling environment for mainstreaming climate change, through the development of capacity of the municipalities and other key local agencies to assess and understand climate risks and vulnerabilities, and accordingly mainstream climate change adaptation strategies and actions in local plans and policies, and the establishment of a multi-stakeholder platform for dialogue and cooperation on climate change adaptation at the watershed level.
Component 2: Enhanced Resilience of Local Communities to Climate Change
Enhanced Resilience of Local Communities to Climate Change through a) community-based natural resource management such as community identification of adaptation interventions, support and demonstration of sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture and livestock practices, improved water management, strengthened management of community and leasehold forests, and b) Nature-based Solutions that reduce climate impacts and risks.
Component 3: Monitoring, evaluation and knowledge management
Monitoring, evaluation and knowledge management, through tracking of project progress on a regular basis, garnering and analysis of lessons and good practices, and development and dissemination of knowledge that reinforces project results from components 1 and 2, providing sound basis for their replication, adaptation and sustainability.
