Meet-and-greets are a great way to get to know some of your fellow conference participants in a small informal space, chat with highly experienced adaptation practitioners and build your networks.

The first meet-and-greet sessions are Monday 26 September, where you'll get to meet Susan Nanduddu, Executive Director of African Centre for Trade and Development (ACTADE); Joshua Amponsem, Climate Lead at the Office of the UN Secretary General’s Envoy on Youth, and the founder of Green Africa Youth Organisation (GAYO); or Aditya Bahadur, principal researcher at IIED and specialist in climate-resilient urban development. 

Don't forget: the sessions will be happening all next week, and will be limited to 15 people each. You’ll only be able to register for one, so make sure to login and sign-up via the CBA16 agenda on this platform soon so you don't miss this fantastic networking opportunity!
