Mini-Workshop: Research Ideas and Planning
On 16 December 2019, the Development Economics Research Group (DERG) and the Policy Studies Institute (PSI) organized in Addis Ababa a mini-workshop on research ideas and planning.
The event provided an opportunity to present and discuss some of the ongoing research and to set the agenda for upcoming events and capacity building trainings.
The event is part of the collaborative research project ‘Building Resilience to Climate Change in Ethiopia: Exploring Options for Action’, which will compare and evaluate the drivers of resilience to climate change examining actions taken at the household and village/district level.
