- W2613887275 abstract "Adaptation is an issue of global concern and of equity. Climate change affects allcountries, but many developing countries are particularly vulnerable due to theirlow adaptive capacities and lack of resources. Yet, these countries, communities,and individuals are among the least responsible for climate change. Over the lastdecade, climate change adaptation has begun in earnest to prepare for rising seas,higher temperatures, worsening droughts, and other impacts. This book shares the growing body of knowledge on adaptation, using the experience of adaptation project teams to construct narratives that convey meaningful and compelling knowledge based on practice. These adaptation projects have one thing in common: they have all been made possible by funding provided by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). As such, the book draws upon objective data and subjective observation, quantitative and qualitative methods nested in real-world examples. This approach builds upon and complements the growing number of other efforts to synthesize and share adaptation knowledge.The wealth of adaptation literature, mostly theoretical and some practical, haslacked in-depth accounts of actual adaptation projects and programs, and the challenges that implementation brings. What is also markedly different about this effort is that it draws upon a mature and diverse portfolio of adaptation projects across the GEF’s network of partners. Indeed, the projects showcased inthis book were selected in consultation with the agencies involved in implementing GEF-financed adaptation projects in 130 countries, totaling over US 1.3 billion dollars, embodying a diversity of perspectives, lessons, experiences,sectors, regions, and contexts.The intended audiences for this publication are adaptation and developmentpractitioners, fund managers, policymakers, adaptation decision-makers, and other stakeholders. This book explores the early, real-world examples of projectsbenefiting from dedicated adaptation funding in developing countries. This book is the result of the well-established, ongoing partnership between the GEF and the agencies involved inimplementing GEF-financed adaptation projects. The case studies that follow take stock of — and compile — meaningful,illustrative examples of the design, process, and implementationof climate change adaptation projects. The case studies includetelling examples of adaptation projects as well as valuable,candid observations and insights about challenges and opportunities. The result is a slice of the adaptation experience,in which the GEF plays only one of the roles, but a significant one." @default.
