“We would be interested in supporting the island states through our three core activities--capacity building, knowledge sharing and technical assistance. The program would look at early warning systems, nature-based solutions, climate resilient infrastructure among others. Most of it is adaptation focus and the agenda also is to build on our work to get additional finance for climate resilient infrastructure,” Amit Prothi, director general, CDRI, told Business Standard recently.
