Pascal Girot, CARE PECCN's Senior Climate Change Advisor for Latin America and the Caribbean, presented an overview of CARE's climate change adaptation efforts.
Care's commitment to climate change adaptation work stems form an understanding that climate change impacts affect all types of livelihoods, their assets/resources including the natural environment that communities are dependent on. In Africa, Care's scope of effort includes an Adaptation Learning Programme in Africa in particular. Their projects involve climate science outreach, participatory scenario planning, and gender role sensitivity.
