Conference 5/9-5/11: 2017 National Adaptation Forum

The National Adaptation Forum is a gathering space for the adaptation community to foster knowledge exchange, innovation and mutual support for a better tomorrow. Since the Forum is created by and for the members of the adaptation community, the meeting focuses on issues of the day - established and emerging. This year's theme is "Action today for a better tomorrow."
