From October 13–17, stakeholders from across the region will come together on Bonaire for a training on Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) for Climate Change Mitigation. The workshop will focus on the role of mangroves, seagrass beds, and coral reefs in capturing carbon, protecting coasts, and building resilience against climate change.

Participants, including government representatives, MPA Managers, NGOs, and knowledge institutes, will strengthen their capacity to design adaptive management plans and monitoring strategies for coastal ecosystems. With expert instruction by Delft Institute of Water education (or UN – IHE), the sessions will also combine instruction with peer-to-peer learning, ensuring participants gain both practical skills and opportunities for collaboration.
