The purpose of this publication is to present and showcase the experiences from the Programme Scaling Up Mountain Ecosystem-based Adaptation: Building Evidence, Replicating Success, and Informing Policy. This Programme is part of the International Climate Initiative (IKI), supported by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMUK), and jointly implemented by IUCN and The Mountain Institute from 2017 to 2019 and by IUCN from 2021 to 2022. The Catalogue of Ecosystem-based Adaptation measures in mountains focuses on the work done in three mountainous regions of the world: the Andes (Perú), the Himalayas (Nepal) and Mount Elgon in East Africa (Uganda and Kenya). The catalogue aims to display EbA measures implemented in different sites along these regions, to share first-hand experiences and knowledge from project implementors, as well as testimonies from local beneficiaries. Each EbA measure of the catalogue presents practical information in a concise manner, aiming to reach a broad range of users, including NbS practitioners, decisionmakers, project designers and managers, researchers and local communities
