Transition shaped by local stakeholders
Through our Resilient Landscapes Program, we ensure that the transition is shaped and led by local stakeholders. Our activities include:
- Restoring healthy forests, rivers and soils by bringing back diverse mosaic forests, regenerating soils, revitalizing rivers, creating wildlife corridors and reintroducing/habitat creation for native species like the vultures, otters, beavers, wolves, wild cats, etc..
- Developing Participatory Landscape Plans for the different valleys of the Muga watershed that bring together municipalities, science, landowners and the private sector to co-create a shared long-term vision. Each valley in the watershed develops its own action plan, featuring visible, participatory projects and a public dashboard that tracks water security, fire safety, and ecosystem resilience, ensuring collective ownership.
Impact by 2035?
- 10k ha of mosaic forests restored and 100 km of rivers revitalized, improving water flow, soil health, and reducing fire risk.
- 3–5 wildlife corridors reconnected, enabling the return or stabilization of native species such as vultures, otters, beavers, and wild cats.
- Participatory Landscape Plans completed for all valleys in the Muga watershed.
