While synergies among climate change adaptation and mitigation (CCA&M) policies clearly exist, little common understanding has been established on how to introduce CCA&M policies in an integrated manner. A holistic approach to land-use planning and management at the local level can help meet this challenge. To test this idea, with support from the...
