Abstract

Though Africa contributes little to the causes of climate change, it has no choice but to prepare for its consequences. Launched in 2006, the CCAA research and capacity building program works on the premise that Africans themselves are best equipped to find effective adaptation solutions. We support the adaptation efforts of African researchers and institutions through three main strategies: • participatory action research (PAR), • education and training, and • communications and networking.
