IN FOCUS - Integrating nature into cities in Latin America

The sustainable city and more specifically Nature in the city are at the heart of the strategy of the FFEM for 10 years by encompassing both biodiversity conservation issues, adaptation and low-carbon transition of cities and territories whose population density is constantly increasing.

Rapid urbanization is putting increasing pressure on natural ecosystems, which can no longer play their regulatory role (microclimate, drinking water supply, flood reduction, food security, etc.). Moreover, the Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted their increased vulnerability to disruptive events, with the breakdown of supply chains and the accentuation of inequalities.
