Project target groupsLocal population from partner municipalities, 27,058 population of Lipkovo (according the Census 2021) and 43.302 population of Bujanovac (according the Census 2002). Target group will obtain better and safer environment with increasing of the technical capacities & institutional set-up for erosion prevention, river basin management and flood prevention through afforestation and reforestation of the highly degraded areas.
Local administration and public utility representatives from each municipality will participate on the educational and other events i.e. Institutions (employees from each municipality/PCU, CSO’s, elementary schools, representatives that are working on the environment issues and providing service for awareness rising

Creation conditions for sustainable management of natural resources and achieve land degradation neutrality. (i.e., impacts):
Specific objective(s) (i.e., outcome(s)):
1. Increased technical capacities for preventing land degradation and flood prevention, afforestation and reforestation of the highly degraded areas as anti-erosion measures
2. Institutional set-up of the local self-governments and stakeholders mitigation of erosion, river-basin management and flood prevention and increased human resource capacities for risk management with focus on preventing land degradation and flood prevention
Expected results:
1. Improved technical capacities of PUC “Komunalac” Bujanovac & PUC “Pisha” Lipkovo through providing equipment and tools for preventing land degradation and flood prevention (SO1).
2. Afforestation and reforestation of the highly degraded areas as anti-erosion measures through providing local plants and species for the most vulnerable areas affected by land erosion and floods (SO1).
3. Institutional set-up of the local self-governments and stakeholder’s mitigation of erosion, river-basin management and flood prevention through preparation of feasibility study - Engineering design based on nature-based solution for the municipal torrential waters and highly eroded areas. (SO2).

5. Preparation of feasibility study - Engineering design based on nature-based solution for the municipal torrential waters and highly eroded areas, including Action plan for Bujanovac and Lipkovo (OP3).
6. Study visits (one in Bujanovac & one in Lipkovo) - 2-day event with participation of the local administration and public utility representatives from each municipality (20 participants from both municipalities on each study visit - (OP3).
7. Awareness raising campaign and visibility of the project at the highest possible level i.e. the project will produce short video (teasers), designing and printing of promotional materials related to risk management, land degradation and flood prevention (OP4).
8. Capacity building for local institutions, local and regional stakeholders related to risk management, land degradation and flood prevention i.e. training for risk management, preventing land degradation and flood prevention (2 day event) for 20 participants. One training (2 day event) for 30 participants and 3 info sessions (150 on each side) for the local populations and with focus on elderly people, teachers (primary schools) and representatives from other vulnerable groups related to risk management and flood prevention. Training(s) and info sessions will be implemented on both sides (Lipkovo & Bujanovac) (OP4).
