CBA18: local solutions inspiring global action, Mon, 06 May 2024 – Thu, 09 May 2024, Arusha, Tanzania (in-person)
The 18th International Conference on Community-Based Adaptation to Climate Change (CBA18) takes place from 6 May to 9 May 2024 in Arusha, Tanzania, and registration is now open. The CBA conference series aims to bring together a community of practitioners who are collectively seeking to reimagine solutions that enable transformative outcomes, through the agency of communities driving climate action.
CBA is a space for the adaptation community to share learning on community-based and locally led adaptation systems, and to explore how to put the principles for locally led adaptation (LLA) into practice, recognising the complexities, innovations and challenges that must be overcome.
With a focus on acquiring new skills, sharing experiences and connecting with peers, the conference offers participants four days of discussion, debate, peer-to-peer ‘skill-shares’ and knowledge exchange, through an innovative, dynamic and interactive space, enabling participants to promote climate action.
