About the webinar
Mangroves, marshes and seagrasses sequester and store significant amounts of carbon from the atmosphere and ocean. They are therefore an essential part of the solution to climate change. They also provide essential ecosystem services, such as coastal storm protection and fish nurseries.
The International Blue Carbon Initiative is a coordinated global program focused on climate change mitigation through the conservation and restoration of coastal and marine ecosystems. To support this work, the Initiative is coordinating the International Blue Carbon Science Working Group and the International Blue Carbon Policy Working Group, which provides guidance for needed research, project implementation and policy priorities.
In this webinar we will learn lessons learned from their work in the Latin America and Caribbean region. The webinar will be held at Spanish. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the LEDS LAC Platform Secretariat: [email protected].
