The document summarizes upcoming events and projects from three Portuguese cooperation organizations in April and May 2015: 1) The third course of the IAC project took place in Praia, Cape Verde in April, concluding the first cycle. The second cycle will begin in September with courses in Mozambique and Cape Verde. 2) The first course of the EBAC project will be held in Maputo, Mozambique in May, covering modules on greenhouse gas inventories, climate action plans, and Mozambique's potential low-carbon development contributions. 3) In PACA, May will involve following up on a participatory budgeting process in which over 1,000 community members identified a proposed

2. At planºC April marks the closing of a phase and May the
beginning of another. On the one hand, in April occurred the third
course of the IAC in Praia, Cape Verde, ending the first cycle of
these actions and, on the other hand, in May will take place the
first EBAC course in Maputo and start the design of PACA’s
projects to be drawn from the communitarian participatory
budgeting.
Thus, we give notice of what will be the development of these
three projects in the next month.

3. From the 6th until the 17th of April 2015 took place the third course of the
project IAC – Integrating Adaptation in Cooperation, in Praia, Cape Verde. This
was opened by the National Director of Environment and Ms. Attaché for
Cooperation and had the INMG, DNA, DG Energy, MDR, the ADAD, among
others.
The IAC project aims to respond to climate change impacts, contributing to
integrate the response to vulnerability with capacity building for integrating
adaptation into policies, plans and projects in Mozambique, Cape Verde and
Sao Tome and Principe. The project is funded by the Portuguese Carbon Fund
and support of the Portuguese Environment Agency and the Portuguese
Cooperation, running the CHAOS. As a partner also has the GIZ which shared
some of the materials and methodology.
The second cycle of courses will start next September and will feature three
courses, two in Mozambique and one in Cape Verde.

8. The first course of EBAC – Low Carbon Strategies, will be held from the 11th
until the 22nd of May in the capital of Mozambique, Maputo.
The training plan for this action was defined based on the needs identified by
Mozambique and is made by combining two modules:
 M1 – MRV IGEE aimed at increasing capacity to prepare national
inventories of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the first instance and the
 M2 – INDC setting the Intentional Nationally Determined Contribution of
Mozambique.
To these adds a parallel activity included in a third module aimed at raising
awareness of a wider audience for what could be the contribution of
Mozambique to a lowcarbon development
 M3 – “what would be the contribution of Mozambique to a low carbon
development?“.

10. In PACA May marks the resumption of project tasks following up the
participatory budget and stakeholders’ consultation
• Over 1000 (one thousand) community representatives were consulted. It
resulted in:
• A project idea with measures for water management especially for
agricultural production of subsistence livelihoods in a drought or more
severe and frequent flooding context. It should also include
– Measures to prevent human-wildlife conflict
– Alternative sources of income as livestock breeding and agro-processing
– Distribution of inputs and the promotion of conservation agriculture
– Simple strengthening of early warning systems
– Actions to promote the use of renewable energy sources and the dissemination
and advice on energy efficiency practices
– Communication and awareness campaign based on best practices to develop
and test communities
