Warming trends and increasing temperature extremes have been observed across most of the Asian region over the past century (high confidence). Water scarcity is expected to be a major challenge for most of the region as a result of increased water demand and lack of good management (medium confidence). The impacts of climate change on food...

The poster presents the study on adaptation effectiveness indicators both in top-down and bottom up processes in a concise manner. For more details on this work, please refer to these reports: Report on top-down indicators: http://pub.iges.or.jp/modules/envirolib/view.php?docid=4550 Report on bottom-up indicators and adaptation decision making...

Adaptation effectiveness indicators could vary by location, hazard under question, practices and stakeholders engaged. However, it is possible to identify a broad range of indicators that could be relevant to a range of conditions. A simplified AHP could be useful for prioritizing adaptation interventions at community level that could effectively...

The presentation described the research on the monitoring and evaluation of adaptation in the Indo-Gangetic Basin. This involved consultation meetings with stakeholders at national and regional levels. These were used to develop a questionnaire that was implemented with local communities. Once indicators had been identified, a local adaptation...

The Asia Pacific Adaptation Network (APAN) was established in 2009 in response to the growing need for collaboration among different stakeholders engaged in climate change adaptation and related areas to build resilience of vulnerable human, ecosystems and economies to climate change. The network envisages achieving this through sharing knowledge...

There is a lack of holistic frameworks to help climate change adaptation practitioners identify and implement CCA (climate change adaptation) actions. Keeping this in view, several frameworks for CCA decision making have evolved in recent years. Though these frameworks are still at nascent stages and are yet to be field tested, studies of these...

Climate change will have significant impact on rural livelihoods and poverty undermining the developmental gains made by countries in Asia, as is evident from the literature reviewed. The review suggests that these impacts will vary widely from region to region and communities within a region and country depending on the existing vulnerability and...

This publication provides all the finalized training modules for agriculture officers in the countries of Bangladesh, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Mongolia and Nepal which are resultant of various stakeholders coming together under APAN led initiative and funded by APAN and APN for the last several years. Full reports supporting these modules are also...

This presentation presents the major findings from literature reviewed on climate change impacts on agriculture liveilhoods and suggested adaptation measures. The presentation is subsequently elaborated into a working paper that can be obtained from the author.

アジア太平洋地域適応ネットワーク（APAN）は、気候変動に対する人間や生態系システム、経済のレジリエンス確保を目的とし、気候変動適応と関連分野のステークホルダー間の協調へのニーズに応える形で、2009年に設立された。本ネットワークは、気候変動適応に関する知見や情報をステークホルダー間で共有することにより上記の目標を達成し、適応を国家および準国家レベルで達成するため、発展途上国の資金メカニズムへのアクセスに加え、適応に関する計画立案と能力構築を促進することを目的としている。近年、国際および国家レベルにて、気候変動による損失と被害(ロスアンドダメージ：L&D)に関する重要性が高まったことを受け、本調査を通じて、各ステークホルダーにおける諸課題や認識を整理することとなった。このため、本調査ではL...
