Highlights from the Climate Knowledge Brokers' Workshop
The Climate Knowledge Brokers Workshop was convened in Bonn from 18-20 May. Geoff Barnard and Mairi Dupar blogged from the workshop - read on to find out whether knowledge infrastructure is more of a pond or a network, and what makes web users tick.
This project aims to foster the creation of a global network of journalists and media organisations in the developing world that are capable of reporting on climate-change adaptation and other aspects of environmental finance for both a general and specialised audience.
The InfoAmazonia GeoJournalism Platform builds on existing simple yet effective mapping and visualisation technologies, such as Google Earth, to help journalists and other knowledge brokers increase the Latin American public’s awareness about climate and development issues in the Amazon region.
This joint initiative between three knowledge brokers aims to advance the user demand-driven development, refinement and cross-linking between weADAPT, the Climate Information Portal (CIP) and AfricaAdapt.
This project focuses on two priorities: integrating heterogeneous and globally distributed information sources, and tailoring data into relevant content that can be communicated in a way that allows stakeholders to find sector-specific knowledge.
