PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Philippines remain highly vulnerable to climate change impacts and biodivserity loss. TRANSCEND focusses on integrated adaptation, mitigation and biodiversity solutions in three landscapes in the Philippines. In a whole-of-society approach the project is piloting a transition process to a climate resilient, low carbon and biodiversity friendly society. It works across all levels of government to ensure decision making takes place as close as possible to the target population. Partnerships between government, private sector and civil society enhance actions to reach international climate change and biodiversity commitments. Community based conservation and planning will lead to larger natural carbon sinks and more resilient local government units. Innovative technology and seed funding for private sector investments accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy, while decision support systems across all levels of government improve policies and climate finance.
