It presents a theoretical framework for understanding social learning and communication approaches and reviews the current landscape of approaches, tools and decision aids in communicating climate change in the context of development. It reviews the challenges of communicating complex issues and scientific evidence as well as relevant local knowledge and perspectives and explores user needs and perceptions both within the CGIAR family and amongst other stakeholders.
