The Review outlines the establishment and implementation of the Climate Change Adaptation Modality (CCAM) within the framework of CISU's Civil Society Fund (CSF).
The assessment examined the relevance and effectiveness of CCAM interventions in addressing climate change adaptation for poor and vulnerable communities. It was found that CCAM projects, implemented by Southern Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in partnership with grant holding Danish CSOs who support projects with back-up services, MEL and reporting to CISU demonstrate a high level of alignment with the priorities of Danish Strategy for Development Cooperation.
The assessment reveals that a significant portion of CCAM project costs is transferred to implementing Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), indicating a relatively high degree of localization. Approximately 72% of total project costs are transferred to implementing CSOs, with an average of 42% utilized at the community level.
