I am a young professional working for the Provincial Government of the Western Cape in the Department of Environmental Affairs and Development Planning. My key work interest is primarily around the development of tools to support and inform key decisions around climate adaptation in the Province. This involves identifying all programmes and projects active throughout the province that build adaptive capacity, compiling databases of these, and exploring opportunities to map them. From these tools we can then be able to do identify gaps in implementation, need for coordination and networking points, and opportunities that can be brought through climate adaptation.
The weADAPT platform gives us an opportunity to somewhat achieve this work interest and also creates an opportunity for key stakeholders to see what is currently being done in the Western Cape Province to build adaptive capacity.
