USAID Climate Strategy Launch Webinar Series
The first part of this webinar series kicked off with three sessions offering a high-level overview of the new USAID Climate Strategy. The kick off sessions were offered in three different time zones to accommodate climate practitioners around the world and feature speakers from various USAID missions. The Climate Strategy Launch Webinar Series raised awareness about key aspects of the new USAID Climate Strategy and began to answer the question for practitioners, “How does this strategy affect my day-to-day work?” This webinar series also aimed to gather questions from USAID Staff and Implementing Partner Staff about the Strategy.
