Resumen
Descripción
The World Bank (WB) estimates that,
by 2030, up to two-thirds of the global extreme poor will be
living in fragile and conflict-affected situations. Of the
top 20 countries most vulnerable to climate change, 14 are
considered by the WB as fragile and conflict-affected.
Households affected by conflict experience greater economic
losses and longer recovery time in the aftermath of a
disaster. NBS is an umbrella term for a set of interventions
that seek to protect, manage, and/or restore natural
systems, while addressing multiple development goals such as
climate and disaster risk resilience, economic and social
prosperity, food security and biodiversity conservation. By
providing targeted support and expertise, the Global
Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) is
instrumental in overcoming the unique challenges of FCV
contexts, ensuring that NBS interventions are not only
feasible but also effective in building resilience and
stability in these vulnerable regions.
