Towards Inclusive Climate Change Interventions (TICCI)

As African countries push for a greater focus on climate change adaptation, and more adaptation financing is made available through global mechanisms, understanding the local impacts of global adaptation discourses becomes increasing important. Adaptation is rarely the technical, apolitical process which it is framed as being. Instead, it creates new winners and losers, exacerbating conflict and the risk of conflict, as well as forging new alliances within and between scales. This site presents the research findings of a research project on new dynamics of conflict and cooperation arising from planned adaptation interventions in selected communities Burkina Faso, Ghana and Kenya. The research consortium is headed by Utrecht University in The Netherlands and includes also CARE Ghana International, SARI (Ghana),  INERA (Burkina Faso) and ILEP (Kenya). The project, entitled Towards Inclusive Climate Change Interventions (TICCI) is funded by the UK's Department for International Development (DFID) through the Dutch Council for Scientific Research (NWO). It is funded within the program on Conflict and Cooperation in the Management of Climate Change (CCMCC) under the program. The site aims to serve as a resource for researchers, policymakers, development practitioners and others aiming to make adaptation interventions more participatory, inclusive and conflict sensitive.
