Using a hotspot approach, the Collaborative Adaptation Research Initiative in Africa and Asia (CARIAA) program is able to explore how vulnerabilities manifest across regions, linking local and national research with regional planning and international discourse. Efforts to match research to the biophysical scales at which change occurs need to include understanding of the mismatch that can develop between these regional scales and the governance scales at which decisions are made.application/pdfenCOLLABORATIVE RESEARCHHOTSPOTSADAPTIVE CAPACITYREGIONAL DISPARITYEVIDENCE-BASED PLANNINGCOLLABORATIVE ADAPTATION RESEARCH INITIATIVE IN AFRICA AND ASIALOCAL LEVELGOVERNANCESEMI-ARID REGIONSSOUTH OF SAHARASOUTH ASIAJournal Article (peer-reviewed)
