In the climate vulnerable Caribbean region, Dominica is on a path to climate resilience. With support from PROGREEN and the Global Environment Facility, the government and the World Bank are working together to conserve nature and spur economic development through ecotourism.

With the support of PROGREEN, the 8billion campaign—launched in partnership with Connect4Climate, Resilient Foundation, and WaterBear—empowers young filmmakers in the Sahel to tell their climate stories. Through hands-on workshops, participants gain the skills and inspiration to make an impact, while also contributing to the Sahel Landscape Restoration Program.

The Landscape Governance Assessment Tool (LGAT) is a tool developed by the World Bank to identify the strengths and weaknesses of forested landscape governance and to arrive at practical ways to address the weaknesses.

Healthy forests are the base for human, wildlife, and ecosystem well-being, providing essential support systems for all. They are particularly vital for communities living in some of the most impoverished regions globally. By investing in our forest resources, we can alleviate poverty, foster inclusive economies, and pave the way for resilient futures intertwined with nature. Join us in amplifying this crucial conversation on social media using the hashtag #ForestsForUs.
