This month, CDKN hosted three sessions at Daring Cities, a virtual conference organised by ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability, from 7-28 October 2020.

8 October - Knowledge brokering for climate compatible development 

Participants heard from urban decision makers, practitioners and researchers on what they are doing to bridge the gap between knowledge and action at district, municipal and state levels in Ghana, India and Nepal. CDKN also shared emerging insights and learning on knowledge brokering from our work in Asia, Latin America and Africa.
