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.
The International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) and Institute of Development Studies (IDS), together with partner knowledge networks, are trying to address the climate change knowledge gap through an in-depth analysis of how different user groups of climate knowledge broker services assess, access and apply knowledge from these services.
The Renewable Energy & Energy Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) and reegle, a unique clean energy information portal, are working with three partners (weADAPT, Eldis and OpenEI) on a project that aims to drastically improve the efficiency of tagging and categorizing clean energy documents with a new user interface.
IDS, UNEP, the Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre and REEP are developing a web-based interactive tool – the Climate Change Knowledge Navigator – to guide users through to appropriate climate change information and knowledge brokers. The tool will be embedded in existing websites and portals as a widget.
Scaling the heights to raise awareness of climate compatible development
A series of blogs will be reporting from a four month trek along the Great Himalaya Trail in Nepal, led by the world record holding mountaineer Apa Sherpa and in partnership with the Government of Nepal, which is raising awareness of climate compatible development in this highly vulnerable region.
Want to share climate information? Then let’s mash up our data together
Denise Recheis, knowledge management specialist at the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) discusses how the concept of 'Linked Open Data' could revolutionalise the communication of climate information.
Over two years, CDKN supported the Climate Change Media Partnership (CCMP) to improve the quality and quantity of climate change coverage in the developing country media, enhance the capacity of journalists to cover the issues and ensure developing country voices are heard in global debates.
