The project focused on the elaboration and implementation of ASEAN-wide regional and national strategies to appropriately address biodiversity’s interface with sustainable development and climate change.
Additionally, the project prioritised the promotion of institutional efficiency of the ACB to provide advisory services to other relevant organisations within ASEAN and the ASEAN Member States (AMS) in the establishment and elaboration of sustainable development policies and strategies on Biodiversity and Climate Change and Biodiversity and Economy.
The ACB provided capacity building support to enhance strategies to appropriately address the interface between climate change and biodiversity.
For the period 2010-2015, the BCCP achieved significant outcomes in providing capacity building on biodiversity and climate change related activities. The BCCP, in coordination with partners, supported the conduct, among others, of regional workshops related to REDD-Plus including relevant safeguards, PES, dialogue in promoting climate change and biodiversity in ASEAN region, and other related themes.
From 2012 to 2015, the ACB and GIZ completed the implementation of BCCP Pilot projects supporting on-the-ground activities in selected ASEAN Heritage Parkss. These pilot projects were oriented towards regional policy development focusing on ecosystems management and enhancing economic benefits from biodiversity.
