Result on Child labour
Training increased participant adolescents’ knowledge of climate-adaptive technology by around 47 percent in Bangladesh. Participants spent less time in a week for leisure activities but devote more time per week to doing IGAs.
Other results
Participation rate in IGAs using climate adaptive technologies – 17 percent of training participants were using climate adaptive technologies by applying their recently gained skills at the end of the intervention (no evidence of income generation because of this, though).
