SUMMARY:Become a Climate Resilience Trainer-webinar-2
DESCRIPTION:Webinar No 2: Co-production and Implementation of Nature-based Solutions\n\n\n\nThe ALBATROSS project is launching a Training of Trainers initiative across five African countries to help vulnerable communities move beyond traditional coping mechanisms that are no longer sufficient against escalating climate shocks. By integrating Nature-based Solutions (NbS) with data-driven Climate Services (CS)\, this program empowers local leaders to build long-term resilience and protect food\, water\, and economic security. The objectives pursued are: \n\n\n\n\nBuild Technical Proficiency in NBS: Enable participants to understand and communicate how healthy ecosystems can be leveraged for protective and regenerative functions\, offering sustainable alternatives to conventional engineered infrastructure.\n\n\n\n\n\nDevelop Applied Skills in CS: Equip participants with the ability to interpret and disseminate scientific climate data and forecasts\, facilitating proactive decision-making in sectors such as agriculture\, pastoralism\, fisheries\, and urban planning.\n\n\n\n\n\nFoster Integrated Application: Demonstrate the synergistic potential of combining ecological restoration with climate intelligence to build comprehensive community resilience.\n\n\n\n\nBy the end of this program\, participants will be equipped not only with technical knowledge but also with the practical skills and confidence to train others\, empowering communities to use the twin tools of nature’s wisdom and climate science to build a more resilient future. \nThe second session uses the case of the EU project LAND4CLIMATE and explores strategies for effective multi-actor collaboration\, co-production of knowledge and overcoming language barriers. Also demonstrates a case of NbS implementation on private rural land in flood- and drought-prone Euskirchen district\, highlighting three measures (Miscanthus buffers\, Tiny Forest\, depaving) and fostering private landowner stewardship for climate adaptation and biodiversity. \n  \n\nEffective Collaboration for Climate Adaptation Action: The Case of LAND4CLIMATE\nSophie Holtkötter\, research associate\, Research Group for Regional Development and Risk Management at TU Dortmund University \n \nThe presentation draws on experiences from the EU research project LAND4CLIMATE to explore how diverse actors can effectively collaborate on climate adaptation. It showcases cooperation with practice partners from municipal and county administrations\, water management and national park authorities\, NGOs\, and landowners\, including farmers and business representatives. Central to the talk is the design and facilitation of an interactive Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) workshop involving academic and practice partners from six countries\, aimed at identifying stakeholder-approved measures. The presentation highlights practical approaches to co-producing knowledge and navigating language barriers in a complex\, multi-actor research environment. \n  \nImplementation of nature-based solutions (NbS) on private land by a regional public administration in a rural county in Germany\nJonathan Schulze\, Project Manager of Land4Climate for the County of Euskirchen\, Team County Development and PlanningThis presentation is based on the EU “Land4Climate” project and aims to provide insights into how nature-based solutions can be implemented on private land in a rural region of continental Europe that is particularly affected by flooding\, heavy rainfall\, and droughts. It highlights the challenges\, opportunities\, and obstacles in the practical implementation of nature-based solutions (NbS) in the district of Euskirchen. Three exemplary measures are highlighted: the cultivation of Miscanthus as a vegetative buffer zone to mitigate flooding and droughts; the creation of a 380 m² “Tiny Forest” to improve urban cooling\, biodiversity\, and social awareness; and a partnership with homeowners to remove impervious surfaces in order to restore natural water infiltration and reduce heat stress. The presentation highlights the positive side effects for climate adaptation\, biodiversity\, and local engagement\, as well as the question of how private landowners can become active supporters and long-term stewards of these NbS on their private properties.  \nDo not miss the opportunity to learn from top-level experts.

SUMMARY:Become a Climate Resilience Trainer-webinar-3
DESCRIPTION:Webinar No 3: Linking socio-productive baselines\, operational monitoring and farmer-facing climate services\n\n\n\nThe ALBATROSS project is launching a Training of Trainers initiative across five African countries to help vulnerable communities move beyond traditional coping mechanisms that are no longer sufficient against escalating climate shocks. By integrating Nature-based Solutions (NbS) with data-driven Climate Services (CS)\, this program empowers local leaders to build long-term resilience and protect food\, water\, and economic security.  \nThis presentation will share ongoing work from the ALBATROSS Tamatave Hub in eastern Madagascar on linking socio-productive baseline data\, operational monitoring and farmer-facing climate services through the NBAT Tool and the AgriSupport application. Based on data from 152 farmers across Toamasina region\, the current dashboard visualises farmer profiles\, crop diversity\, ALBATROSS areas\, existing productive lands and farmer typologies. The application is being designed with a double purpose: to support the project team in monitoring agroforestry implementation\, and to provide farmers\, field technicians and trained lead farmers with accessible information on their farms\, climate conditions and practical adaptation recommendations. The next development phase aims to track the full implementation chain on each degraded ALBATROSS plot\, including cleaning\, terracing\, planting holes\, seedling distribution\, short-term crops\, planting\, maintenance\, tree survival and production monitoring. The presentation will discuss how NBAT and AgriSupport can jointly support more targeted adaptation planning\, climate services delivery and long-term monitoring of agroforestry-based adaptation trajectories in the Tamatave Hub. \n  \nDr. Arthur Bostvironnois\, Eastern Coast Project Coordinator\, Tamatave Hub – EU ALBATROSS Project\, Adaptation Climatique et Transition Agricole Platform (ACTA)\, Bôndy International\nArthur Bostvironnois is a geographer and Regional Coordinator for Bôndy International in Toamasina\, Madagascar. He coordinates the Tamatave Hub of the European ALBATROSS project\, focusing on climate services\, nature-based solutions and agroforestry-based adaptation with local farmers and territorial stakeholders. His work combines political ecology\, participatory approaches\, field coordination\, socio-productive monitoring and applied research on climate resilience. He is particularly interested in linking farm-level data\, stakeholder knowledge and operational monitoring tools to better understand and support adaptation trajectories in vulnerable rural territories. \n  \n Milan Kalas\, Vision Holder / Managing Director\, KAJO\nMilan Kalas is a hydrologist and disaster risk management expert at KAJO Services\, an ICT consultancy developing operational tools and services for climate resilience\, emergency management and adaptation. With around twenty years of experience across Copernicus Emergency Management Service applications\, his work spans flood forecasting and impact-based early warning\, the integration of Earth observation\, citizen science and IoT data\, and the delivery of practical climate services to end users. Within the ALBATROSS project\, he contributes to the technical development of the NBAT tool\, climate services\, citizen science and impact-based forecasting\, designing dashboards\, data pipelines and climate services that turn socio-productive baselines and field monitoring into accessible adaptation information across the project’s hubs \n  \nDo not miss the opportunity to learn from top-level experts.
