Resumen
Descripción
The five-year project is funded by GEF and implemented by FAO. The executing partner is the Department of Water Resources, Jilin Province. The project uses the western Jilin wetlands to address one of the most disruptive environmental challenges in China: large-scale land degradation and biodiversity damages caused by decreasing water resources. Its global environmental objective is to demonstrate and replicate an integrated model for Sustainable Land and Water Management (SLWM) in saline-alkaline productive landscapes, including rehabilitation and biodiversity conservation in wetlands. The development objective is to provide the long-term sustainable flow of income to farmers’ communities from farming systems (crop, livestock and fish) in the western area of Jilin Province by building an ecologically resilient productive landscape.
