OBJECTIVE
DRYAD is committed to enhancing climate resilience in Mediterranean agro-silvo-pastoral ecosystems through the development and implementation of NbS aimed at mitigating droughts, wildfires, and high tree mortality. Using Living Labs, the project engages local communities to co-create sustainable practices.
KEY ACHIEVEMENTS
DRYAD collaborates closely with local stakeholders to co-design, test, and scale up NbS initiatives across five demonstration regions and three replicating regions. By actively involving local communities and authorities, the project fosters collaborative adaptation efforts. It develops practical tools and promotes climate-resilient practices that align with both regional and EU climate goals, including the Nature Restoration Law. DRYAD is paving the way for transformative solutions that bolster resilience and sustainability in Mediterranean ecosystems.
