Projectdetails
LIFE Water in Landscape and Soil (LIFE WILL)
Introduction
The aim of the LIFE WILL project is to increase the resilience of people and landscapes to climate change by enhancing the capacity of landscape and soil to retain water through ecosystem-based adaptation measures at the local level in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and other EU countries. The project seeks to demonstrate a complex participatory methodology that engages key local actors to overcome existing barriers at the local level and strengthen their awareness and capacity to initiate and implement water retention measures.
Project Objectives
The project will support adaptation to the effects of climate change, enhance biodiversity through nature-based retention measures, and contribute to mitigating the causes of climate change through carbon sequestration. It aims to improve climate management and information capacity, especially at the level of local and regional administration. The project is implemented in the Czech Republic and Slovakia and plans to share widely the results, methodologies, and policy recommendations in these two countries and in other EU countries with a similar historical background.
Specific Goals
The specific goals of the project are to:
-
Demonstrate an innovative participatory adaptation methodology for water retention in soil and landscape on a concrete example of 3 pilot sites in the Czech Republic and Slovakia (23 km), in order to:
- Increase resilience to climate change effects (such as erosion, floods, and droughts).
- Enhance rural socioeconomic development, landscape resilience, and biodiversity.
-
Replicate in the Czech Republic and Slovakia (30 locations) and promote in other EU countries the technical and methodological results achieved at the demonstration sites, as well as tools and participatory methodologies aimed at:
- Helping farmers, landowners, municipalities, and the public to build their awareness.
- Enabling them to implement effective adaptation measures through water retention in soil and landscape.
