dc.description.abstractThis report summarises the main outcomes and learning from management and delivery of the nearly 5-year “DEltas, vulnerability and Climate Change; Migration and Adaptation” (DECCMA) project within the “Collaborative Adaptation Research Initiative in Africa and Asia” (CARIAA) programme. DECCMA considered climate change and deltas with a strong focus on adaptation and migration within deltas, including migration as an adaptation. It was committed to being gender-sensitive in research approach, data collection, and analysis. Globally deltas and their environs house 500 million (or 7 percent of global population) people on one percent of the land area, with a concentration of populated deltas at mid and low latitudes. Deltas are highly dynamic biophysically. This includes a high vulnerability to sea-level rise and climate change, and also subsidence (deltas sink), exacerbating global changes in sea level. Deltas are also socially dynamic, with changing land use, economies and strong trends of migration that have potential to be modified under future environmental and climate change.en
