Ecosystems, Climate Change and the Millennium Development Goals

November 26, 2015

This working paper sets out a framework to scale up locally-driven solutions to ecosystem decline, climate change and poverty. Its thesis is that local actors are the most effective drivers of change at the local level, and that empowering local organizations to carry out their own initiatives is the starting point for local solutions to poverty and environment challenges.
