USAID LEAF Calendar

Events are great opportunities for the USAID LEAF program and its partners to share technical knowledge, build skills, and disseminate lessons learned.  Our team works with key partners and communities across the region to convene experts, officials and members of civil society for workshops and meetings which help advance climate change mitigation policy and practice.  USAID LEAF also joins other regionally significant events in the climate change and forestry sectors to provide input and expertise.

The list below provides a comprehensive summary of dates and descriptions of upcoming and recent events.
