Features Building African capacity for participatory action research CCAA recently supported training workshops in Benin and Ethiopia to help research partners strengthen the application of participatory action research to their projects.

The Climate Change Adaptation in Africa (CCAA) research and capacity development program  commenced in April 2006. The program aims to improve the capacity of African countries to adapt to climate change in ways that benefit the most vulnerable. It works to establish a self-sustained African body of expertise on adaptation that responds to needs defined by African communities, decision makers, and institutions.
