CSE Climate change adaptation workshop: Towards Climate Resilient Communities in South Asia: Emerging Policies and Practices

CSE's experience-sharing workshop on climate change, brought together about 20 ngo's, practitioners and implementers from across India and other South Asian countries who work at the ground level with communities directly impacted by the effects of climate change.

They came together to share and discuss how communities are responding to such observed impacts, to identify best practices that can be replicated across the region and sketch an agenda on the way forward for more climate-resilient communities. An important outcome of the meeting is a South Asia-wide network of experts, scientists, practitioners and organisations working on adaptation.
