1. Executive Summary
The issues related to climate change including mitigation, adaptation, loss and damage, finance,
technology, capacity building and related international and national policy responses were
addressed in this short training workshop. The intention was to address all the relevant issues of
climate change regime so that the participants can have brief overview on the all issues and
identify their interest for further study and research. Hence the resource persons with sectoral
expertise including those from abroad conducted the different sessions maintain the timeframe
and subject matter. Targeted participants attended the training workshop, who were selected
with a rigorous selection process. Logistic and organizational issues were satisfactory for all, in
particular the training center was liked by all the students and resource persons. However,
consultations with participants and resource persons suggest that, it was too tight schedule and
short time frame for such a comprehensive subject matter of the training workshop. However,
all students tried to identify the research interests followed by the research workshop and now
we need to develop a strategy to assist these students to pursue their researches and to study
further. In particular, regarding organizing such future training workshop in future, it can be
considered for a five day residential training workshop like summer school.
Initial idea was to organize Summer School on Climate Change Law and Policy for the students
of South Asian Countries as to next step. Need to have a discussion among the collaborating
partners to develop a strategy to continue and enhance the initiative to build the capacity of the
students.

2. Background
The Training Workshop on Climate Change Law and Policy, a capacity building initiative for
the law students and students from environment management related disciplines, intended to
make students aware about climate change issues and related national and international legal
and policy responses. It also wanted to provide guidance for further study and research on
climate change related issues through enhancing understanding on existing and potential legal
and policy frameworks. This report aims to evaluate the Training Workshop, which would
provide further guidance to organize such training workshop more effectively. Also it provide
some ideas future course of actions.
3. Objectives and Assessment Reports
The specific objectives of the training workshop were as follows:
- To make aware the students on climate change
- To make them understand the legal and policy responses to climate change
- To provide guidance for research and further study on climate law and policy issue
- To provide guidance on the thesis works and publications on climate law and policy
- To extend this program in South Asian as Climate Law Summer School
Prior to start the training workshop, a pre-assessment and after the training workshop a post
assessment were conducted, which show that, overall understandings of participants on climate
change issues and related laws and policy have been increased. The following pie and bar-

The reports show that, before training workshop 25% of trainee, had minimum understanding
on climate change issues and related laws and policies. After the training workshop, 67% of
them reported that this training workshop enhanced their understandings on critical issues
related to climate change law and policy. The assessment reports are annexed herewith as
annexure 01. Also the student enabled to identify their future research and study areas on
different issues of climate change. This identified areas need to be examined further for
future course of actions and to support these students. The identified research areas of the
students are annexed herewith as annexure 02.
4. Organizers
The training workshop was organized by Christian Commission for Development in
Bangladesh (CCDB) and Centre for Climate Change-Bangladesh (CCJ-B), in collaboration
with
- Faculty of Law, Chittagong University,
- International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD at IUB
- Clean Energy-Nepal (South Asia),
- International Institution for Environment and Development (IIED) UK and
- Legal Response Initiative (LRI).
CCD-B provided financial and logistics supports. CCD-B Hope Centre, is a perfect place for
organizing such residential training programmes. Students and Resource Persons like it very
much. ICCCAD, IIED, LRI collaborated through providing resource persons. There is no
enough resource persons in Bangladesh related to Climate Law and Policy and hence presence
of these international environmental lawyers as resource persons was highly appreciated and
inspired the students.

The table and pie chart demonstrates the understanding about climate change law and policy
afterward successfully completing the three days training workshop.
As it has been found, eighteen (18) participants were very confident after gathering knowledge
about climate change law and policy. From pie chart it is clear that it is 67% of the total
participants while it was 25% before training. Thus, 8 participants have been found confident
which 29% of the total participants. In this evaluation level, only 1 participant has been found
who could not understand clearly about climate change law and policy. It is only 4% of the
total participants.

3.1 Overall Assessment
The charts shaped above make comparative analysis about the level of understanding of
participants before and after completion of training workshop on climate change law and
policy. All participants have been characterized in three different categories viz; very
confident, confident and not confident.
In pre-evaluation 25% of trainee were found very confident with the climate change law and
policy, nevertheless after completion of the training workshop it is 67%. It is clear that
confident level of participants improved rapidly and they are becoming very confident about
