In addressing the pressing challenges of climate change, the project “Strengthening Climate Resilience of Subsistence Farmers and Agricultural Plantation Communities of the Knuckles Mountain Range” plays a vital role by supporting the Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) under the investment of Green Climate Fund (GCF). The project focuses on long-term environmental sustainability by establishing climate adaptation information portals and improving access to agriculture, water supply and affordable renewable energy. Implementing ecosystem services by enhancing product development, value-adding processes, farm business enterprises, market access and developing financial models to support payment for ecosystem services is also in the pipeline to ensure livelihoods.
