Project Objective: To understand current (and past) impacts of climate change by conducting a vulnerability risk assessment in order to strengthen efforts in disaster risk reduction (DRR)

Stepwise approach focused on adaptation:

  • --- Risk management and adaptive capacity
  • ---- Adaptation planning

Community Risk Mapping

  • Using a participatory approach that

integrates traditional knowledge in adaptation planning, climate risks maps were produced.

  • Community members, including

leaders, resource users (hunters, fishermen.), and elders, were selected in the various mapping sessions

  • rganized.
  • Oral stories, in addition to

qualitative assessments, were used to identify and assess climate hazards and its level of impact.

  • These data were put on the physical

map provided, and later converted into GIS layers.
