Sumario:CGIAR and UNHCR jointly organized a bilingual training session on climate security and displacement, aimed at strengthening the understanding of humanitarian and government practitioners from across English- and French-speaking African countries on the climate-security-displacement nexus. The training brought together participants from national refugee agencies, disaster management bodies, different ministries, regional and local authorities, community organizations and NGOs across Africa. The training was structured in four parts, focused on climate security, climate-displacement linkages, a case study on Burkina Faso and a group-based scenario exercise, to provide a structured space to deepen analysis, share experiences and explore practical approaches that reduce risk rather than inadvertently exacerbate it.
