The lasting impact of tailored climate science In this feature, we review the impact and legacy of our initiative communicating the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report to journalists, educators and policy-makers.

Mozambique water woes (2) - How to build capacity in climate resilience planning Miren Gutierrez looks at the context in which CDKN and the Global Water Partnership put in place a capacity building programme aimed at improving resilience in Mozambique.

Mozambique water woes (1) - Climate change, geography and capacity How much fresh water is available to people, where it is and how it is managed are probably the most important questions in water security. Miren Gutierrez reports on Mozambique's situation.

Information Brief : Summary of sourcebook The Caribbean Water Sector Sourcebook has been developed to support implementation of the Regional Framework for Achieving Development Resilient to Climate Change and Implementation Plan.

Information Brief : Financing climate resilience in the water sector Specialist climate finance is becoming increasingly important in the Caribbean. The water sector is in a prime position to benefit from a number of global climate funds available to support countries in their efforts to increase climate resilience.

Report : Achieving development resilient to climate change – A sourcebook for the Caribbean water sector The Caribbean is exposed to both current climate variability as well as future climate changes. The economic, social and environmental impacts experienced during recent climate hazards such as hurricanes, floods and droughts highlight the need for action to reduce risks to acceptable levels.

Enhancing African capacity on climate and development knowledge African scientific experts have formed the 'October Group' to boost African contributions to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) as the IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report process gets underway.

Lessons learned from developing a climate master’s programme How did 23 academics from six universities across five countries develop a master's curriculum in climate change within twelve months? We look at the lessons learned from this ambitious task.

Policy Brief : Learning from an African capacity development programme A new Learning Brief reviews how the Water, Climate and Development Programme for Africa (WACDEP) managed to build capacity for climate-resilient development, with CDKN's support, and considers how such programmes could be improved in the future.

Seeking capacity development results How can capacity development best be organised to generate good results? Klas Sandström of Niras looks at a CDKN-supported water project where over 130 professionals increased their capacity in climate resilient planning and a Pan-Africa network in climate adaptation work was established.
