Resources
This toolkit from CARE was developed to support project teams complete the project cycle in community-based adaptation projects.
"It includes step-by-step guidance and recommended tools for all stages of the project cycle, along with links to useful resources and checklists for key project documents. It also includes CBA Project Standards to help ensure high-quality analysis, design, implementation and information & knowledge management (including monitoring & evaluation) in your CBA project.
This interactive Toolkit is designed to be flexible. Users can tailor the process to meet their needs, priorities and available resources, including time. See About the Toolkit to discover how the CBA Toolkit can work for you." (CARE International, 2010)
