RT null T1 Ecosystem-based Adaptation in the United Republic of Tanzania 2024-2029 A1 United Nations Environment Programme, YR 2025 FD 2025-02-11 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/49103 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/49103 NO Tanzania’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.
