ESP’s Watershed Management and Biodiversity Conservation Component contributes to stabilizing and improving the supply of water to urban and periurban population centers in West Java, Central Java, East Java, North Sumatra and Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam. This five-series toolkit is based on the inputs of ESP staff and stakeholders and draws from nearly five years of field experience.
