Looking for a round-up of CDKN’s major projects in its first year, and our big plans for technical assistance, research, knowledge sharing and partnership in year two? You’ll enjoy our Progress Update, available now for download (click on right).

This short newsletter takes you on a tour of some of our major project accomplishments between April 2010 and April 2011. From Ghana's national climate change strategy, to an implementation plan for climate compatible development in the Caribbean, to building up the evidence base on climate and development in Southeast Asia: all CDKN's recent highlights are here.

We  also introduce our thematic focus, which is to promote:

• climate compatible development strategies and plans
• access to climate finance
• climate related disaster risk management and resilience

Please write a comment or send us an email on enquiries@cdkn.org with your feedback.
