dc.descriptionTanzania’s Kigoma region hosts a population of approximately 2.4 million and over 190,000 refugees from neighbouring countries, the majority of whom live in the refugee camps of Nduta and Nyarugusu. These settlements, which were rapidly established in response to critical humanitarian needs, are located in areas where the surrounding ecosystems are being degraded. A new initiative is set to be a flagship approach on the practice of using nature-based solutions as a holistic strategy to adapt to climate change - technically referred to as ecosystem-based adaptation - especially in landscapes hosting displaced populations. Climate-resilient land use planning, forestry, agriculture, water use efficiency, flood and soil erosion control and policy interventions will be implemented in an integrated landscape approach.
