The assessment of water harvesting in South Sudan was aimed at generating lessons needed to support a long-term, cost-effective and environmentally sound programme for livestock water development in South Sudan.

South Sudan’s NAPA specifies five priority activities (referred to as Priority Adaptation Projects) for effective climate change adaptation across the five identified priority thematic areas, namely: i) Environment; ii) Water Resources; iii) Agriculture; iv) Disaster Risk Reduction; and v) Policy and Institutional Framework.

This report was designed to address the following principal objectives: i) Identification of national needs in the environment sector with regard
to policy development and implementation; and ii) Identification of corresponding strategic areas for support by the international community, with particular reference to UNDP .

This report explains what is known about coastal ecosystems in the Indonesian province of Nanggröe Aceh Darussalam (NAD or Aceh), their status before the tsunami of 2004, and how they fared after it. It reviews the ecosystem restoration activities that were undertaken in 2005-2006 by a variety of governmental and non-governmental actors, in partnership with many different stakeholder groups, and updates findings into 2007.
