Networking & Collaboration

Technologies are vital to building climate-resilient, low-carbon societies. Many essential technologies already exist — the challenge is to get them deployed where they are needed, and to build the enabling environments to support technology innovation, adaptation and scale-up. An overwhelming number of developing countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement indicate a requirement for technology support and capacity building in order to achieve their commitments. To meet this need, the CTCN serves as a demand-driven and trusted partner, matching developing countriy needs for climate change-related equipment, methods, capacity development and policy advice with the world-class expertise of its Network and our collaborators. 

Environment and Development

Environment and Development (ED) was established in 2015 by highly experienced professionals skilled in Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA), particularly in climate change induced risk mapping including natural hazards and vulnerability assessment in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) environment. One of the key working areas of Environment and Development is Water Resource Management (WRM).
