The objective of the training was to strengthen the knowledge and capacity of the participants on the NbS for climate change adaptation and community resilience as well as to make them capable so that they can identify the proper NbS. A total 25 participants from 10 local partner organizations of RECAP and CCDB joined the training. Resource persons from CCDB and sectoral NbS experts joined as the facilitators in the training. The partner organizations of CCDB included:

✅ Community Development Association (CDA), Dinajpur
✅ Mukti Nari-O-Shishu Unnayan Sangstha, Kushtia
✅ Centre For Capacity Building of Voluntary Organisation (CCBVO), Rajshahi
✅ Pollisree, Dinajpur

✅ Local Environment Development and Agricultural Research Society (LEDARS), Satkhira
✅ Coastal Development Partnership (CDP), Dhaka
✅ Nagorik Uddyog, Dhaka
✅ Action for Social Development (ASD), Dhaka
✅ Association of Development Agencies in Bangladesh (ADAB), Dhaka.

In the training, the participants learned about NbS with regional context and the challenges, barriers, resource utilization, and necessity of strengthening organizational capacity of CSOs for effective NbS. The participants had an opportunity to make a grounded visit to the CCDB Climate Centre, and they learned to identify the NbS by practically observing options for climate change adaptation and mitigation technologies at the CCDB Climate Centre. The participants developed an action plan on NbS for their organization, considering the context of their working areas. Now it is expected that the participants will utilize the knowledge of the training for reducing the climate vulnerability of the community members by designing and implementing NbS in their respective working areas.
