Extreme weather events caused by climate change causes disturbances in healthcare, education, food security, and community stability. Local communities are the best informed of their challenges, but not always sufficiently equipped to manage the impacts of climate change. This COP27AfricaAndGender Day promotes locally led adaptation initiatives to empower decision-making and resilience building through financial and technical support combined with traditional and local knowledge-share to enable community-driven adaptation and innovation.
