To have 1.000.000 hectares of forest lands in ecological and productive restoration participating in the international carbon bond markets.

By the year 2038, we would have transversally integrated climate change into sectorial planning and public and private investments, 400 thousand hectares of forest lands will have certificates of reduction of emissions on international markets.

To increase the net use of water resources for energy purposes from 5% to 16%

To reduce by 2022 the yearly forest cover loss by 70%.

By 2022 the country will have the institutional framework it needs for climate change adaptation and mitigation, physical vulnerability will be reduced by 50%.

1,5 million hectares of forests under restoration by 2038 against a 2010 baseline

80% of electricity from renewable resources by 2038

The project aims to increase and improve the governance, adaptability, and resilience to climate variability and climate change in the mountain communities of Santa Barbara and the Yojoa Lake region. The specific objectives aligned with each project component are:
1. Promote participatory processes of territorial planning and decision-making to cope with the impacts of climate change and climate variability.
2. Support, strengthen, and promote the adoption of diversified and climate-smart agrifood systems.
3. Increase understanding and knowledge about climate variability and adaptation processes.

Local CSOs and CBOs in landscapes-seascapes around the world access grant financing and technical assistance, including capacity development and knowledge sharing to maintain and enhance their socio-ecological resilience, well-being and socio-economic conditions for global environmental benefits.

Decarbonization of ENEE and Support for Financial Sustainability Project implemented by Inter-American Development Bank (IADB)

The program proposal is designed for the Direct Access Improvement Mechanism (EDA) of the Adaptation Fund involving national, subnational, and local entities in the design and implementation of climate change adaptation projects in the coastal communities of the Muskitia de Honduras. In line with the objective of the EDA, the program will contribute to increasing decentralized decision-making and financing for adaptation at the local level in Honduras. The Program’s General objective seeks to contribute to increasing the adaptive capacity and climate resilience of the vulnerable Miskitu, Garífunas, Pech and Mestizo communities of the marine-coastal region of the municipalities of Juan Francisco Bulnes and Brus Laguna with emphasis on the protection of their livelihoods, assets, and ecosystem services. The Program’s Specific Objectives are the following: 1. Develop the institutional capacities of local entities for the development and execution of
projects that increase the resilience to the effects of climate change in the Garífuna and
Miskitu communities of Juan Francisco Bulnes and Brus Laguna.
2. Establish a grant financing scheme under the EDA program that allows the identification,
review and approval of project proposals that contribute to climate change adaptation of the
Garífuna and Miskito communities of the municipalities of Juan Francisco Bulnes and Brus
Laguna.
3. Manage EDA program grants to finance the implementation of climate change adaptation
measures in selected communities.
4. Promote the development and management of knowledge and information on climate
change at the local, national, and international level.
Through the EDA program, local communities will be empowered to access international
climate financing to design and implement solutions for climate change adaptation at the local
level.
