Improving biodiversity, climate, and economic development together

Prioritizing investments to combat land degradation in Ethiopia
Confronting the triple challenge of land degradation, climate change, and biodiversity loss calls for integrating sustainable land management practices at unprecedented scales. Researchers from Natural Capital Insights worked with the Government of Ethiopia and the World Bank to develop a tailored Investment Prioritization Tool. The tool identifies where sustainable practices can be best targeted to maximize improvements in ecosystem services that support agricultural productivity, safeguard water supplies, and enhance health and well-being.
