IUCN Med Drives Mediterranean Agroecology and Climate Resilience
The C6 project, operating in Tunisia's governorates of Bizerte, Le Kef, Béja, and Siliana, has introduced an agricultural monitoring framework in the Corridor Caroubier initiative. Meanwhile, IUCN Med is leading various projects to protect and restore soil, promote agroecology, and enhance climate resilience in the Mediterranean region.
IUCN Med is working to transform soil treatment in the Mediterranean through initiatives like SOILGUARD and NBSoil. The latter has established a training pathway for soil advisors to diagnose soil health and advise on sustainable practices. IUCN Med's ResAlliance network shares knowledge on climate change resilience for farmers and foresters.
In the agroecology sphere, IUCN Med is promoting sustainable farming through the NATAE project's 'living labs' and the MEDAE network. The organization has also assessed 19 agricultural interventions using the IUCN Global Standard for Nature-based Solutions. Additionally, a study led by IUCN Med in 17 Mediterranean cities examines the integration of biodiversity conservation into urban food policies.
The Farclimate project develops 'living labs' to help communities understand climate risks related to agriculture. IUCN Med and its partners are connecting healthy landscapes to resilient value chains, supportive policies, and enhanced knowledge to transform agriculture.
The C6 project's agricultural monitoring framework, along with IUCN Med's various initiatives, is driving change in the Mediterranean region. These projects aim to protect and restore soil, promote agroecology, enhance climate resilience, and transform agriculture for a sustainable future.
