Climate Protection in Bolivia: The importance of water management | Global 3000

The farmers of Bolivia’s arid south have been hard hit by global warming. The rainy seasons are growing shorter, leaving parched fields during the long dry stretches. Better water management and new irrigation strategies could help farmers adapt to the changing climate. A pilot project under the auspices of the International Climate Initiative and the GIZ is helping farmers in the Bolivian Andes to “harvest water.” It includes building canals and cisterns, repairing dams, reforesting and setting up water distribution systems.
