Minister of State, Joseph Harmon yesterday said that even as climate change is addressed at the national level, communities must also be equipped with the necessary tools, training and knowledge since this is where the effects are most felt.
The Minister was at the time delivering the feature address at the opening ceremony of the United Nations Environment (UN Environment) Regional Capacity Building Workshop on Supporting Countries to advance their National Adaptation Plan (NAP). It was held at the Ramada Princess Hotel.
Harmon’s remarks come in the wake of flash floods in Regions Seven and Eight last week which submerged houses and decimated farms.
