IUCN examples of NbS providing multiple benefits

August 25, 2020

Organic production of coffee in agroforestry plantations, if done right, is better for biodiversity and provides more income and food security of farmers.

IUCN provide short summaries of NbS being successfully integrated on the ground, including:

Agroforestry in Rwanda enabling people to send children to school
Integration of shrimp farming with mangrove protection and management in Viet Nam
Conservation agricultural providing food security in Mozambique
Forest landscape restoration in Malawi with information disseminated by a radio programme
Stabilisation of roads in Nepal by planting broom grass and bamboo
Re-establishment of traditional grazing practices in Jordan has revived wildlife, increased fodder production and saved herders money
36 coffee producers in the Brazilian Cerrado are planting trees, restoring degraded land and shifted to organic farming in order to make production more sustainable
