Resilient Mountain Solutions: Ten local solutions for global impact

This book presents 10 efficient, cost-effective and custom-made solutions that have been tested in the Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region and are suitable for up-scaling and out-scaling to other regions. Each solution can contribute to several of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and thus help ensure a better future for all. The 10 solutions showcased here are examples of a large number of diverse, nature-based solutions that provide long-term benefits to local communities, their environment and livelihoods by increasing their resilience to change. 

This publication was developed as a part of the Resilient Mountain Solutions (RMS) initiative in collaboration with GRID-Arendal, Norway. The RMS Initiative is implemented by the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) in collaboration with local partners and is funded by the governments of Norway and Sweden.
