The Tyndall Centre jointly with the International Institute for Environment and Development organised a one day workshop entitled Climate Change in Africa: Linking Science and Policy for Adaptation, held in the Royal Society, London, on the 30th of March 2006. The workshop brought together over 70 participants across the UK government, international NGOs and research communities to: review the state of knowledge on Africa and climate change; to identify capacity constraints in African research networks limiting their effectiveness in both research and influencing climate adaptation policies; to use examples of existing research and development programmes aimed at reducing vulnerability to current climate variability (and other stressors); and to draw out the lessons for policy-makers involved in developing programmes on climate change in Africa.
