The first part of our EGU activities today has been successfully concluded. We had nine excellent presentations presenting various capacity development projects in cooperation between Europe and Africa on the topic of climate change. We’re looking forward to the poster session at 2:00 PM in Hall X1 with more projects and to the Networking events in the evening (see the flyer).

Together with our NetCDA partner Renee von Dongen (ICWRCG), and with Alexadra Bell (DLR), Bastien Dieppois (Coventry University) and Arona Diedhiou (IRD) our EORC members Lilly Schell and Michael Thiel organized the EGU session which took place this morning.
