Results and impact from 12 years cooperation on climate change related land use change

Since more than 12 years the University of Würzburg and the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, cooperating on capacity development activities in the frame of climate change induced land use changes. The partners run a joint Doktoral Programme in Ghana which is also open for other external contributions. The presentation will mainly highlight the results and impact of this longterm cooperation. But it will also discuss issues that we have faced during the implementation.  Results and impact will not only be presented by scientific output, but will also contain the methodological development over the cooperation lifetime. While the impact will also be discussed based on the CV of selected anonymized PhD students of the Programme.
