We are pleased to announce the first in-person training session planned under the Technical Assistance to the CopPhil programme, a flagship programme under the EU Global Gateway.
From 28 to 31 July 2025, Local Government Units (LGUs) and other sub-national stakeholders in the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) will gather in Baguio City for a 4-day hands-on training on Earth Observation (EO), GIS, and the use of Copernicus data for disaster risk reduction, climate adaptation, and natural resource management.
This event marks the launch of a nationwide series of 12 regional trainings that will be rolled out in the coming months, aimed at strengthening local capacities to leverage EO data for evidence-based planning and decision-making.
Stay tuned for updates from the field! For more on CopPhil’s activities, follow us on LinkedIn and Facebook.
