Implementing climate change action : a toolkit for Caribbean civil society organisations

Abstract

This toolkit is an output of the Climate ACTT: Action by Civil society in Trinidad and Tobago to build resilience to climate change project, which was implemented by the Caribbean Natural Resources Institute (CANARI) between August 2015 and January 2017, in collaboration with Conservation International (CI) and BHP Billiton, Trinidad and Tobago. The Climate ACTT project sought to strengthen the capacity of five civil society organisations (CSOs) in Trinidad and Tobago to internationally accepted levels of best practice in two areas: institutional (organisational) strengthening; and technical capacity to deliver programmes and projects related to climate change adaptation and resilience. The purpose of the toolkit is to provide other CSOs with practical information and examples to assist them in designing and implementing effective climate change projects and programmes in their communities and countries.
