Project

The Climate Development and Knowledge Network (CDKN) combines research, knowledge management and advisory services to help descision-makers nationally, regionally and globally to design and deliver climate compatible development and support locally led policy processes.

The programme is managed by SouthSouthNorth, and implemented in partnership with Fundación Futuro Latinoamericano and ICLEI South Asia.

Our ODI-based team advises on climate knowledge sharing and policy engagement strategies and manages the CDKN website.

Within the broad scope of climate compatible development, we work across four specific themes: water-energy-food nexus; climate finance; cities and urban resilience; gender and social inclusion.
