Community Based Adaptation and Advocacy in Costal Pakistan
Submitted by Tahia Devissche... 13th March 2011 19:18
In 2008, Oxfam GB in Pakistan undertook community-based research to better understand the implications of climate change for communities living in the Badin coastal region of Pakistan. This research was initiated following discussions between programme staff and partners about the Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) 2007 reports, as well as the UNDP Human Development report of the same year.
This case study is an analysis of a pilot climate change adaptation project designed by Oxfam GB in response to the research.
