Climate change challenge for ETimor
Last Updated: 23 hours 33 minutes ago
A United Nations-sponsored climate change awareness campaign has been
launched in East Timor.
The UN says the $US200,000 National Adaptation Program aims to foster
understanding on how climate changes are affecting people's lives and what
can be done to help.
An introductory meeting on the two-year program was held in Dili this
week.
It was attended by about 80 people, including representatives of
government, donors, international agencies, students and non-government
organisations.
East Timor is vulnerable to a range of natural calamities, including
drought, flood and soil erosion
