Gender Climate Change Capacity Development Series-Africa: Module 2- Adaptation

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has developed training modules and policy briefs on gender and climate change themes of specific relevance to the Africa region, including overall climate change issues, adaptation, finance, agriculture and food security, and energy and technology. These knowledge packages are expected to assist in capacity-building efforts in the Africa region on gender and climate change and on broader issues of sustainable development. These materials draw on capacity development work being undertaken in partnership with other members of the Global Gender and Climate Alliance (GGCA) and complement existing GGCA training modules, resource guides, and related knowledge products. Their preparation has been made possible by contributions from the Government of Finland and the Government of Denmark (For more detail, see the introduction to module 1).

This second module in the series addresses gender issues involved in the processes of adaptation to climate change.
