Disaster Risk Reduction as well as Climate Change Adaptation (DRR-CCA) need to be approached together in order to face the risks of today and prepare for the future impacts of climate change.

Klima researchers also conducted training sessions for our partners in building resilient communities to disaster and climate risks..
