17 – 19 October 2016 | Colombo, Sri Lanka
Registration is open until 15 August 2016
The Asia Pacific Adaptation Network (APAN) is organising its flagship Forum on 17-19 October 2016 in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The 5th Asia Pacific Climate Change Adaptation Forum 2016 is now open for registration. This year, the theme “Adapting and Living below 2°C: Bridging the Gaps in Policy & Practice” will explore platforms and concrete pathways for even greater partnerships by governments, civil society, and business. With the growing interest and with the recognition of adaptation not only as a development imperative but as an existential one as well, we are looking forward to welcoming more than 800 participants who will be looking towards meaningful outcomes during the event.
This Forum will bring together policymakers, scientists, donors, youth, and representatives from over 50 countries. With over 150 speakers and 30 sessions planned, the Forum is among the biggest climate change adaptation events in the region. Four Forums have successfully been co-organised by APAN since 2010. Forum Streams: 1. Adaptation Planning; 2. Financing for Adaptation; 3. Climate Resilient Development; 4. Multi-actor Cross Learning To register and to learn more about the Forum Streams, visit the 5th Asia-Pacific
