CANSA and INFORSE will be involved in Advocacy and Campaigning at district, state, national, and regional levels for the promotion of village-based low carbon, pro-poor climate solutions as part of national climate policies proposed for UNFCCC. As an essential basis for this, they will use the evidence collected and compiled from the implementation of low-carbon, green technologies both within the selected eco-villages and beyond throughout the South Asian region. Appropriate capacity building materials will be developed for providing advocacy

The technology discusses in the case study about mixing paddy husk and sawdust to clay in brick making resilting in lower consumption of firewood

It has been a great challenge as well as opportunity for CANSA to continue with a credible platform so that South Asian civil societies could come together and speak out on climate change issues.
