The project objective is to reduce Ecuador’s vulnerability to climate change through increased adaptive capacity for the effective water resources management in a changing climate and improved access to timely and accurate climate data. The project will facilitate the implementation of efficient water management practices to withstand the effects of climate change through: sound water governance arrangements; decentralization of climate-resilient water management; information management and dissemination, and flexible financial mechanisms to promote local innovation in sustainable water management.
