| Omschrijving: | IUCN analyzed 43 projects related to climate change implemented in Costa Rica from 2012 to 2022 as a contribution to improve decision making to face climate change. The results show a strong tendency to focus efforts in strengthening of capacities, the protection and restoration of ecosystems, water resources management (a cross-cutting issue) and finally, food security. Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) were the major implementing organizations, but the international organizations managed the largest amount of budget. The largest economic investment of these initiatives was in coastal provinces. Five challenges were identified to increase the contribution of projects to the reduction of climate vulnerabilities: strengthening local capacities and governance mechanisms in project management; improve more direct community participation; increase efforts in food security (key issue also given the vulnerabilities deepened by the COVID19 pandemic); include risk management as a strategic theme; and prioritize monitoring to generate scientific evidence on progress and impacts. |
