The illustration of the approach to a case study in semi-arid areas of @Mali has enabled to identify three pathways to address gender inequalities through gender-sensitive adaptation across different scales in Mali. @cgiarclimate_WA @ICRISAT @weADAPT1 @Adapt_Alliance @CORAFNews

NEW PAPER!

There has been repetitive calls to place diverse knowledge systems at the core of climate actions. The value of indigenous knowledge systems has been highlighted, particularly in the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) of IPCC.

We conclude by outlining some practical recommendations for fostering indigenous knowledge-based adaptation, including addressing barriers to mainstreaming of indigenous knowledge into #climate #research and #policy.

[Dr Susannah Fisher @Susannahfisher]

So the global goal on adaptation has become a sticky issue at #COP28 as Parties seek to find consensus on how to raise the ambition in adaptation and finance.

It can be easy to jump to the assumption that we just need more common metrics or better data.
