Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources in Malawi: Dataset

This dataset measures climate change impacts on Malawi's water resources. USAID partners with the Government of Malawi (GoM) and a wide variety of Malawian institutions to advance Malawi’s low-emissions, climate-resilient development. Complementary site-based interventions have been initiated to address drivers of climate change, while also helping to generate livelihood opportunities for vulnerable households.

A comprehensive Environmental Threats and Opportunity Assessment provided information about habitat protection and restoration efforts within Malawi’s most globally significant ecosystems. These ecosystem-based approaches to climate change adaptation have led to improved management of more than 92,500 acres of biologically significant land.
