I participate at climapAfrica because
I participate in ClimapAfrica because it provides the opportunity for researchers and experts to exchange ideas and expertise on climate change activities in Africa. Furthermore, I feel Africa needs resident experts to proffer home grown solution to the impact of climate change in the continent. I am looking forward contribute to the mitigation of the phenomenon in the continent through networking and collaboration in the ClimapAfrica community.
