Description

On behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is supporting the Pakistan government to improve the conditions for climate adaptation and resilience as well as climate risk management with a specific focus on vulnerable population, especially women.

The project “Strengthening Climate Adaptation and Resilience (SAR)” supports the entire planning cycle of climate change adaptation measures: from the preparation of climate risk assessments to the piloting of financing approaches and instruments. It contributes towards the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) as well as the Global Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) Partnership, while also supporting the measures at the local level as well as upscaling through international climate finance.

In the context of the SAR project, UNITAR’s Green Development and Climate Change Unit comes to support the capacity-building component through the design, development, and implementation of this online, self-paced course on strengthening climate change adaptation and resilience. Nevertheless, the course does not provide exclusively Pakistani case studies, but also case studies from other Asian-Pacific countries and a solid core general content on climate change adaptation as one of the main pillars of the United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change (UNFCCC).
