Deep-Dive Workshops / Pre-Forum Events: Partners will have the opportunity to organise deep-dive workshop or pre-forum events on 28-29 August 2023, preceding the main event, alongside the adaptation events organised by the UNFCCC secretariat under the broader umbrella of KGAW 2023, such as the Asia NAP Expo, Resilience Frontiers, and UN4NAPs. These workshops will allow participants to delve into specific topics and practices related to the main theme and programme of the APAN Forum. Topics may include adaptation finance proposals, climate-resilient infrastructure design, adaptation planning for communities, and more. The intended organisers are encouraged to review the forum's theme, thematic focus areas, and objectives before submitting their application. For deep-dive workshop / pre-forum event proposals.
