Abstract

This report draws on conclusions found in the final report and evaluation of Climate Change Adaptation in Africa. It also integrates available online resources in an interactive summary, along with results from the program. The report is structured into five sections: Starting points; Foundations; Outcomes; People; Legacy. Throughout this report, links are embedded to program and project resources, with directions for delving further into its scientific findings. Internal links allow navigation from many directions. Evaluation findings indicate that the project succeeded in building a range of capacities among African researchers, communities, and organizations, but less so those of decision-makers.
