Hands on training on ‘Adaptation Technology to Climate Change’
Hands on training on ‘Adaptation Technology to Climate Change’
Application Deadline: 30th November, 2022
Date: 12-13 December, 2022
Training Venue: The training will take place at CCDB Climate Centre, Sreepur, Gazipur, 60 Km north of Dhaka.
Course Overview
Extreme and slow onset events of climate change are posing severe threats to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Bangladesh. Poor and vulnerable people are mostly affected by climate change impacts, such as floods, droughts, cyclones, storm surge and other extreme and slow onset events. To tackle these impacts and make the best use of the opportunity, people need robust adaptation plan to adjust to this situation. Climate adaptation technologies are targeted to adapt to the adverse effects of climate change. Now CCDB is planning to conduct hands on training on ‘Adaptation technology to climate change’ for practitioners who are playing a vital role for community adaptation process.
