Scoping workshop on climate change

SA-TIED held a two-day technical workshop on climate change. The workshop was carried out under the work stream on climate and energy and took place at the Sheraton Hotel in Pretoria, South Africa.

The goal of the workshop was to better understand the detrimental effects of climate change. In addition, participants of the workshop solicited feedback from policymakers and donor agencies to ensure that the government of South Africa prioritized poverty alleviation, nutrition, and food security particularly for rural and vulnerable communities.

Participants included CGIAR researchers from the United Sates and Southern Africa, including South Africa, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Mozambique.
