The Steering Committee of the 2nd Capacity-building Hub are dedicating the last day of the Hub to innovative stand-up talks on capacity-building for climate action. The Capacity-building Talks touch upon a diversity of topics covered during other thematic days: cities, innovation, means of implementation, adaptation, knowledge to action, and raising ambition.

Programme Overview

The talks followed a 'TED-talk' format and were broadcast live through the PCCB’s Facebook. This arrangement was designed to facilitate constructive dialogues among different actors on and off-site and to conclude the 2nd Capacity-building Hub through innovative approaches and cross-sector discussions.
