TroFCCA is a research initiative on adaptation to climate change. During its four years, it expects to produce research relevant for policy processes in the countries where it is implemented by :
- Focusing its activities on development topics of regional/national priority and for which forests play a substantial role; these topics were chosen in consultation with national governments and as part of a policy dialogue implemented through workshops.
- Developing methodologies to assess vulnerability relating to the topics identified above.
- Applying these methodologies to assess vulnerability to identify adaptation priorities.
- Developing work on adaptation in conjunction with national partners, aimed at specifying adaptation needs and strategies in the context of the above development topics.
- Identifying and developing ways to incorporate adaptation concerns into national policies, including sectorial ones.
- Triggering innovative mechanisms to finance adaptation, like the participation of the private sector.
- Establishing a regional policy dialogue to enhance regional cooperation on adaptation.
