Regional Consultations on Climate Change Adaptation Opportunities and the Way Forward

The technical report prepared post – January meeting organized by SACEP and CEE clearly highlights the need for sector – specific technical assistance teams which can help generate empirical evidences on the degree of susceptibility and locally relevant measures to tackle them. SACEP is also moving in this direction inspired by reference to the TEAP and the TOCs of the Montreal Protocol and recent discussions within the GEF too to form such support groups. The TOR for such a technical group will be to compile state of art information on management strategies and present a menu of options which will be the basis for developing implementation projects. SACEP and CEE will then approach the respective country governments, bilateral and multilateral agencies therein for support for implementation.
