General EC2022TEA510A103 01/09/2022 - 31/08/2027 Andean tropical forests are biodiversity hotspots and carbon sinks of critical relevance for the planet. Andean forests’ biological diversity provides critical ecosystem services to millions of people in the region. Several lines of evidence suggest that land-use change and raising temperatures are causing diversity loss, and therefore, are expected to result in a decreased provision of environmental services to human populations. A solid understanding of the capacity of Andean forests to sustain and recover diversity after disturbance,…

General ZA2019TEA490A101 01/01/2019 - 31/08/2024 The impact of climate change is being felt more and more in both rural and urban environments, which each rely on natural resources under pressure from multiple demands for food security, livelihoods and development. The water crisis in Cape Town got global attention. Adaptation is needed in several domains. Better data – especially spatial- are needed for local planners to map changes in natural resources and the urban climate. High resolution satellite imagery and GIS can contribute a lot to quantify and locate issues and possible solutions.…

While legal approaches have focus mostly on prohibition, successful prevention of child marriage requires addressing root causes and principal risk factors and bolstering and building on people’s capacities and resources. Existing risk factors for child marriage…
