The aim of the
Climate Screening Project is to help participating countries screen national
development planning activities for potential impacts of climate change in
relevant sectors and key programmes.
Climate screening provides expertise for
designing climate change adaptation
programmes, while exploring ‘windows of opportunity’ for raising key policy
issues and influencing the design of development programmes and investments.
In Phase I, the Project cooperated with
Mozambique, Tanzania and Vietnam. Phase II will assist Bangladesh, Bolivia,
Nicaragua, and Uganda.
The Project is funded by the Danish International
Development Assistance (Danida) and is implemented by URC with national
counterparts in the participating countries.
