Since the Inception of the project, the C3D+ Partners continuously undertake various capacity building events to enhance the capacity of stakeholders, mainly from developing countries to use the various tools and methodologies developed under the project. The tools and methodologies developed seek to inform decision making and actions to address climate change impacts. The Partners use the feedback received from participants during these training sessions to further refine and improve the C3D+ tools and methodologies as well as adapting them to the user's needs.
