Project ID 2210221121

Ecohydrology is based on a holistic approach to aquatic ecosystems that integrates hydrology and biology to identify the most adequate solutions for the benefit of society and ecosystems. The general objective of Ecohydrology is to apply or to enhance the core elements of the so-called ecohydrology paradigm: Water; Biodiversity; Ecosystem Services; Resilience; Cultural heritage and Education, considering the principles of hydrological, ecological and ecological engineering. The activity will establish at least 3 ecohydrology demonstration sites including 2 in Africa. Ecohydrological approaches promoted which would include up to 7 UNESCO designated sites including Biospheres reserves, Geoparks and natural heritage sites for improved water management.
