Dr Katharine Vincent is in Gaborone this week, contributing to a day of training on gender and climate change. The workshop has been organised by the Botswana National Designated Authority, with the support of the Southern Africa Climate Finance Partnership (a programme supported by DFID and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation), and aims to build capacity to develop project concept notes and proposals that are successful in receiving resources from the Green Climate Fund. Katharine will be outlining the Green Climate Fund's Gender Policy and Action Plan, and running interactive exercises to enable participants to identify opportunities to make climate change projects gender-responsive.
