Linking Open Data to Support Low Carbon Development

As an outcome of the Climate Knowledge Brokers Workshop (http://cdkn.org/event/climate-and-development-knowledge-brokers-workshop/) 
held in June 2011, REEEP and CLEAN/NREL are leading a project to educate climate-related database and portal managers on the use 
and benefits of Linked Open Data (LOD) for seamless integration of web resources. Through integrating climate-related databases, 
organizations can more easily share and leverage available resources, avoid of duplication of effort and help to catalyze low carbon
development.

We will kick off this project with a webinar on September 15, 2011 at 16:00 CET. Please click on the following link:
