SDG14: Life below water

The Nature Protects People Project is a USAID-funded initiative implemented by The Nature Conservancy (TNC). The aim is to build the capacity of planners and communities on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation globally.

We are a working group under the International Organization for Standardization’s ISO TC 268 SC1 Smart Community Infrastructure. Our working group focuses on the standardization of smart community infrastructure which could strengthen community resiliency against potential disasters.

Ecosystems Protecting Infrastructure and Communities (EPIC) is the first global initiative to promote the use of ecosystem-based approaches and protect communities from disasters and the negative impacts of climate change.

RegionsAdapt is the first global initiative of regional governments, launched at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) COP 21 in Paris in 2015 aimed to inspire and support regional governments to take concrete action, collaborate and report on climate adaptation.
