climate change adaptation and mitigation at global

and regional level

Key strategic results

Lessons learned from our experience

KM is key to project management and upscaling of climate

action (today the third pillar of the GCCA+ key to the success of

the two initial pillars, uspcaled in 2015)

Resources for KM and Communication are systematically

underestimated (for GCCA it was initially only 25% of one KE,

now 50%)

CAP4DEV: GCCA+ public group is not a community of practice

as such, but its’ OK!

Social media use: allow key/flagship initiatives to develop

their own social media accounts depending on their overall

• without proper access to social media Communication and

KM is not efficient today (e.g. GCCA+ Instagram account)

• working on private sector without LinkedIn account might be

already an obstacle

What are the lessons learnt?

Allocate systemic resources (expert, time,

budget) to allow for specific programming in

support of other activities (e.g. KM is today

the third pillar of the GCCA+)

Include Communication and KM not only

at the initiative level ( e.g. Support facility)

but also in projects at time of formulation

(e.g. in AD guidelines; control that this is

applied , as for Monitoring & Evaluation)

Should KM considered a project

management function like M&E?

How KM can be mainstreamed in DEVCO programmes and projects?
