Energy and Climate Policy Activity

About this project

The Mozambique Connectivity and Coastal Resilience Compact - Natural Resource Management Project - Energy and Climate Policy Activity: the Climate Resilience Activity will protect and restore critical habitats through co-management with local communities, conservation and creation of protected areas, reforestation initiatives, and through carbon finance opportunities. The competitively-selected partner for this Activity, BIOFUND, a locally established and internationally-recognized foundation leading conservation efforts in Mozambique, will lead the climate resilience initiative together with partners Conservation International, World Wildlife Fund, Gorongosa National Park, Terra Firma, and other renowned implementers. The Climate Resilience Activity will strengthen community management of critical coastal ecosystems, promote new conservation and reforestation practices, expand marine protected areas, and work to reverse the collapsing coastal ecosystems so that Mozambique is able to comply with its own laws and its international commitments. BIOFUND will work with Mozambique to put more land under conservation (Mozambique has targets of increasing marine protected areas from 2% to 10% of territorial waters within the next decade) while also taking an aggressive stance on leveraging the unique opportunity of bringing the value of carbon credits to the individual land holder.
