# Sub-Saharan Africa is increasingly adopting nature-based solutions to combat climate change risks like droughts. A report by the World Resources Institute, World Bank, and African Development Bank, analysed nearly 300 projects aimed at restoring forests, wetlands, and coral reefs to enhance resilience. Despite a 23-percent rise in funding, investment continues to remain far below needs. The Green-Gray Infrastructure Accelerator has been introduced to support eleven more cities across Sub-Saharan Africa in integrating nature-based solutions with traditional infrastructure.
