Culture & Capacity Action Group
Sharing Knowledge and Building Capacity
The Culture & Capacity Action Group supports the development and implementation of the FbD Learning Program through communications, collaboration, learning, and capacity building activities across the integrated floodplain network. The C&CAG helps identify challenges to the realization of local, regional, and federal integrated floodplain management goals and project implementation and workshops strategies to help address those challenges. The C&CAG works with decision making bodies of the network to institute improvements to the funding and implementation system.
