Project Details

NameClimate Led Initiative (CLI)
DescriptionThe CLI Project in Gilgit-Baltistan & Chitral aims to address the challenges posed by climate change on agriculture and food security in a region highly vulnerable to environmental changes. It focuses on promoting sustainable agricultural practices, including regenerative, climate-smart, and conservation agriculture, to improve crop and livestock productivity. The project also seeks to revive traditional farming techniques, reduce soil erosion, and enhance water availability through innovative solutions such as micro-hydel schemes, greenhouses, and organic fertilisers. AKRSP's intervention aims to bolster local food and agricultural security, thereby supporting the region’s economic development and resilience to climate impacts. Key Focus Areas • Forest Plantation. • Regenerative Agriculture. • Climate Smart Innovation. • Hybrid Irrigation Schemes.

Potential reduction of species extinction risk resulting from threat abatement actions

Absolute value (STAR)

560.6

0.2% of the total biodiversity conservation potential of Asia is covered by this project.

309,761.9

25.9% of global biodiversity conservation potential is from Asia.

This stacked bar chart represents the relative disaggregation of the selected contribution's total potential opportunity for reducing global species extinction risk through taking actions to abate different threats to species within its boundaries. The percentages refer to the amount of the total opportunity that could potentially be achieved through abating that particular threat.
