After successful visits in India and Nepal in November 2016 and March 2017, Prof. Dr. Sauer and Sebastian Weber will be travelling to India again between September 18 and 25, 2017. An additional stop will be in Bangladesh.

As part of this, several meetings and workshops, also with other/new partners, as well as a fieldtrip to a Climate-Smart Village in Bangladesh (Khulna region) are planned.
