Publisher Description: The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is investing $3 million in the African and Latin American Resilience to Climate Change (ARCC) program to develop methodologies and technical tools to assess countries' climate vulnerability and resilience. As a consequence of Africa's high level of vulnerability and relative lack of adaptive capacity, its need for technical support and capacity building is particularly acute. ARCC provides technical, analytical, and project assistance and capacity-building in a way that improves the ability of vulnerable populations to respond to climate challenges and safeguards economic growth. |
