All TroFCCA regions work under a common methodological framework but each concentrates on topics of development for which forests contribute significantly. In other words, the focus of TroFCCA on each region was agreed regionally by the project team and national governments.

This task, as well as a broader adaptation policy dialogue will continue to take place in regional and national workshops, implemented in due course of the project. TroFCCA operates in three different phases as shown by the following figure:

Five main activities are undertaken during these three phases:

Activity 1 (Phase 1) :

Develop methodologies to assess the vulnerability of specified development topics deriving from impacts of climate change over forest ecosystems.  Compilation of toolkits applied to the methodology.


Activity 2 (Phase 2):

Implement of the methodology to assess vulnerability on the development topics, biodiversity and carbon.


Activity 3 (Phases 1 and 2):

Development of criteria and indicators for adaptive management.


Activity 4 (Phases 2 and 3):

Development of Policy oriented strategies for tropical forest ecosystems.


Activity 5 (all Phases):

Science-policy dialogue in and across regions
