Patra, Jyotiraj2016-11-092016-11-0920162016http://hdl.handle.net/10625/55866Includes abstract in FrenchThis report presents a snapshot of the climate change adaptation landscape of India, highlights some of its adaptation needs, both existing and emerging, and suggests ways that planned adaptation investments could meet these needs through new research, policy and practice. Given India’s sheer geographical size and diverse sociocultural context, adaptation needs of many sectors and vulnerable groups have yet to be addressed. In particular efforts need to address climate-sensitive regions in the northeast of India, islands in the Indian Ocean, and the Sundarbans region, as well as those focused on gender dimensions of climate change, health issues, and urban and peri-urban communities.application/pdfenCLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATIONASIAINDIASOUTH ASIASynthesis Report
