This means that when the ‘rainy season’ comes the roads often become damage as the soils below them wash away or wash away entirely. This means that in the ‘dry season’ roads usually need to be rebuilt either in part or in full. When a cyclone is due to hit the city or nearby, it is standard practice across Mozambique to evacuate the city to protect human life. Should the roads be in disrepair, this greatly hampers peoples’ ability to get out in time and thus poses a risk to human life. The activity aims to ensure that the citizens of Nacala are offered the best possible opportunity to leave the city ahead of a cyclone.

Además, se les debe dotar de recursos y se deben generar contactos directos entre los escolares y los profesionales del medio ambiente. En este aspecto se propone orientar el trabajo de los practicantes hacia esta alternativa, que en su último semestre deben hacer 210 horas de prácticas. Para ello, la Alcaldía tendría que organizarlos, coordinarlos y pagar sus pólizas de seguros. En este sentido se dispone de un precedente en el municipio de Restrepo. Tras esto se podrán buscar actividades extraescolares y espacios que capten la atención de los niños, siendo esta una forma no sólo para concienciar a las próximas generaciones sino de también llegar a los adultos. Para ello se propone crear una red entre las escuelas de Villavicencio de forma que realicen actividades conjuntas, concursos, intercambios de experiencias, visitas a instalaciones de gestión ambiental y una revista, para estimular a los alumnos.Como ejemplo integrado de herramienta de concienciación y de dotación de recursos se podrá hacer uso del programa internacional GAP (Global Action Plan), que además tiene la ventaja de ser gratuito. Este programa consiste en desarrollar en el hogar una serie de recomendaciones en torno a 4 temas (compra y gestión de residuos domésticos, energía, agua y movilidad), con el apoyo de una plataforma online. Para cada uno de los cuatro temas se explican 6 sencillas propuestas de cambios de hábitos (sin necesidad de inversión), como apagar el standby de los aparatos eléctrónicos. A través de unos sencillos cuestionarios online se pueden evaluar las mejoras conseguidas. Los resultados de este programa, desarrollado en los 5 continentes, indican que se pueden conseguir unas reducción del 10% en materia de emisiones de movilidad, un 6% en emisiones del sector residencial y un 5% del consumo de agua.En cuanto a la creación de la red, esta permitirá generar espacios comunes de reflexión, no sólo al interior de las instituciones educativas sino también en el trabajo concertado con las demás instituciones y organizaciones con las cuales se asocian, para contribuir en el análisis de la problemática, la implementación de estrategias de intervención y en general en la proyección de propuestas de solución a las problemáticas ambientales concretas, todo ello desde una perspectiva atractiva para los escolares. | Pre-feasibility study status | 18000 | Climate finance (carbon credits) | 527673 | 2019 | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 | |||||

The Selangor Committee on Environmentally Sensitive Areas, typically receives three applications a month seeking approval for development projects on hill slopes. The committee, which comprises members from various departments, including the Public Works Department; the Drainage and Irrigation Department; and the Mineral and Geoscience Department, is responsible for scrutinising all applications for development on hill slopes with a gradient exceeding 25 degrees. Approval will only be given after all the relevant aspects have been scrutinised and there is no danger of untoward incidents happening during or after the construction. At the same time, the Selangor state government has pledged to minimise flash floods by resolving uncompleted flood mitigation projects. The recent Auditor-General report found that out of 75 flood mitigation projects in the state that were planned from 2014 to 2017, only 33 were completed. Selangor Infrastructure and Public Amenities, Agriculture, and Agro-Industry Committee chairman Izham Hashim revealed that illegal land encroachment on state river reserve land was a major cause behind the stalling of these projectsand thereby needs to be resolved. A lot of our work was disrupted due to illegal encroachment on river reserves. | Finance secured | Local | 669894 | 2018 | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 | |||||
