PANORAMA database shares nearly 1,900 conservation solutions
Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Over 1,300 organisations and individuals contribute to PANORAMA. Solutions for a Healthy Planet, a platform that now contains 1,897 documented conservation solutions from around the world.
For more than ten years, PANORAMA has worked to share successful local environmental projects and make them useful for others. The platform doesn’t just record successes, it breaks down each project into steps that people in different places can use.
PANORAMA’s database includes solutions from eleven areas of focus, like restoring land, protecting species, and managing coastal areas. These solutions connect to international goals such as the Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework and the Paris Agreement, providing evidence for global sustainability efforts. Each entry details how and why a project worked, so others can adapt it to their own situations. Recent examples show this in practice.
In Mongolia, the UN Development Programme helped communities build storage for animal feed to protect against harsh winters. Around Lake Victoria, a shared report on water quality, developed by a commission representing five East African nations, identified ways to improve the lake’s health. In Ethiopia, a partnership restored Lake Hawassa using a framework that the government now uses across the country.
A network of twelve organisations, alongside over 1,000 individual experts, maintains the database and connects local knowledge with international decision-making.
