Adaptation

Conservation International has engaged AAE to support the development of a GCF funding proposal aimed at increasing the climate resilience of coffee communities in Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Uganda while reducing maladaptive geographic expansion of coffee production, and resulting in significant GHG emissions reductions.

This project, aims to enable landscapes to become climate resilient, increase climate resilience for smallholder farming households and encage private sector in climate-resilient and low-carbon coffee supply via global coalition (Sustainable Coffee Challenge).

This initiative supports the strengthening of the resilience of coffee communities while mitigating the risk of expansion of coffee’s carbon footprint in participating countries.
