What we did
One of the key offerings provided by ICLEI South America (ICLEI SAMS) to its associated cities is the Ecosystem Services Diagnosis. Following the successful completion of the Diagnosis for the city of Canoas (RS, Brazil) in early 2023, ICLEI SAMS is currently extending this solution to the city of Pindamonhangaba (SP). The Pindamonhangaba Diagnosis is a critical component of a larger initiative aimed at achieving Climate Compliance within the city. This Diagnosis serves as a vital tool for identifying how Nature-based Solutions can deliver benefits in terms of biodiversity protection and climate change adaptation.
