Support natural resource mapping and community NRM agreements: Facilitate participatory natural resource mapping processes and support the development, negotiation, and formalization of community NRM agreements, land use plans, grazing corridors, water access protocols, and conflict-sensitive resource management practices.

Conduct awareness sessions on climate change adaptation and sustainable resource use: Organize and facilitate awareness-raising sessions for DRR committees, NRM groups, and community members on climate change adaptation, environmental protection, reforestation, sustainable agriculture, and alternative energy sources.

Support DRR committees to develop early warning systems and contingency plans: Provide technical support to DRR committees to establish or strengthen community-based early warning systems (EWS), develop contingency plans, stockpile contingency materials, and conduct simulation exercises (SIMEX).

Community Engagement and Stakeholder Coordination:

Mobilize communities for inclusive consultations and planning sessions: Lead community mobilization efforts to ensure robust participation in consultations, needs assessments, planning sessions, and validation workshops, with specific outreach to women, youth, PWDs, and other marginalized groups.
