Working closely with USAID Mission counterparts as well as technical and regional counterparts at USAID headquarters, the team has GCC pillar backstopping responsibilities (e.g. clean energy, adaptation, sustainable landscapes), other program responsibilities (climate science, capacity building and outreach, REDD+, LEDS) as well as geographic backstopping roles (e.g. Africa, Asia, Middle East, Europe and Eurasia, and Latin America and the Caribbean).
