Abstract

The project analyzed and measured vulnerability of communes/ barangays and households in selected provinces; provided economic analysis of selected adaptation options; developed adaptation proposals; and formulated policy recommendations to enhance local capacity to adapt to climate change. The presentation slides show results as “vulnerability maps” of the different regions studied. Lack of alternative livelihoods, poor infrastructure and inadequate financing mechanisms are constraints to improvements in communities’ current and future resilience.
