The Renewable Energy & Energy Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) and reegle, a unique clean energy information portal, are working with three partners (weADAPT, Eldis and OpenEI) on a project that aims to drastically improve the efficiency of tagging and categorizing clean energy documents with a new user interface.
Climate change affects women first and worst. Women are also a key part of the solution. In India, CDKN has supported policy research on gender and climate change adaptation, to mainstream gender in State-level Action Plans on Climate Change.
