Council for Scientific and Industrial Research

Kulima Integrated Development Solutions, in conjunction with the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in South Africa and Universidade Eduardo Mondlane, in Mozambique, undertook a project on climate change health, agriculture and disasters analysis in Mozambique funded by CDKN at the request of the government of Mozambique.  The project was divided into three work packages and a report for each of these work packages was submitted.

Presenters from the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR, South Africa) will discuss the issue of climate change impacts on ecosystems and their associated services, how to assess ecosystem-vulnerability, and the role of ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) technologies and practices for sustainable livelihoods.

This webinar will be presented by CSIR, member organization of the CTCN Consortium.
