- Contribute to REAP working groups and knowledge products where relevant.
- Promote good practice and advocacy messages developed through the partnership.
- Provide relevant contacts and connections with governments and stakeholders.
- Actively participate in coordination spaces within the network.
“We are excited to engage actively in REAP. This partnership represents an important step in NORCAP’s work on climate risks, early warning and anticipatory action, offering a valuable platform to collaborate with UN agencies, governments, and civil society”, says Executive Director, Benedicte Giæver.
