Understanding African Universities’ Capacity for Climate Adaptation Research
Through this living lab approach, the project aims to close the communication and collaboration divide among the diverse stakeholders tasked with tackling, or are affected by, the challenges encountered in relation to climate adaptation research in universities and research institutions. By employing the living lab methodology, the project will facilitate the rapid identification of tangible solutions and provide direction on how to implement these solutions.
