Launching of wind energy farm in Ilocos Norte, Philippines

The CCA program aims to build the national and regional capacity that developing countries need in order to fulfil their commitments to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC). The program uses a three-pronged approach of public awareness, technical assistance, and institutional development to achieve this objective.

KLIMA Climate Center serves as the hub of this program. KLIMA acts as the interface between the Observatory and the general public, between the highly technical aspects of the climate change issue and the sustainable development concerns of human society.

Activities under this program include:

• Greenhouse gas emissions inventory (multi-scale: project-based to national level)
• Training courses on climate change (e.g. CDM, V&A assessment, CC101)
• Public briefings on climate change concerns (e.g. climate impacts on agriculture, public health, water resources)
• Communication and information materials on climate change
• Local clearinghouse for clean energy and transport
