This project will design a Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation (PM&E) system for climate change interventions at the ground level. The tool will help to assess the effectiveness of community adaptation projects in Bangladesh, and may be replicated in other countries.

START is commissioning and managing research awards on the theme of climate change, agriculture and food security in Africa, with support from CDKN.

The project aims to identify effective ways to improve and share understanding of water-related climate change risks and uncertainties in selected delta communities in Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia.

This project will assist Nepal Climate Change Knowledge Management Centre to reach policy-makers, students and researchers, as well as the community-based organisations and NGOs who are in the frontline of delivering adaptation projects.

CDKN is working with climate risk-management firm Acclimatise to help Caribbean governments come up with a regional Implementation Plan for coping with climate change.

CDKN is working with the online information gateway, Eldis, to improve access to key research on climate and development.

CDKN is supporting the Government of Ghana to take the first steps in developing a National Climate Change Policy Framework (NCCPF).

Within just a few months of the launch of the Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN), our rapid response service fast-tracked a new project for the African Development Bank (AfDB) to provide urgent technical support on climate finance for the continent.

More detailed information exists on the local impacts of climate change in Africa – but it’s unclear exactly how this knowledge can be used to inform policymaking. With leading research centres, CDKN is supporting the development of African expertise to apply this regional data to decision making and ensure it’s relevant to Africa’s knowledge needs.

CDKN supported the drafting of the climate change section for the Government of Zimbabwe's Medium Term Plan (2011 - 2015). The section establishes the need to have a national climate change policy and integrate climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies in economic and social development policies and programmes.

CDKN has supported the development of two insightful reports on including land in the climate change solution, researched and written by the Terrestrial Carbon Group.

In response to demand from a range of practitioners and government officials in developing countries, CDKN is funding and commissioning a new study to help decision makers assess tools for climate compatible development. This comparative analysis will consider a range of donor, private sector, NGO and country-led methodologies for climate compatible development strategy building and planning.
