Vulnerability and Adaptation

This comprehensive guide explores tools and methods for assessing climate vulnerability, including GIS-based modeling, multi-criteria assessment, remote sensing, and participatory GIS. It covers key topics such as climate impact assessment, stakeholder analysis, and prioritization strategies to support adaptation planning at national, local, and global levels.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Vulnerability and Adaptation Methods and Tools

  2. INTEGRATED / DYNAMIC • GIS temporal • Indicator analysis and ranking • Statistical indicator approach • Vulnerability index • GIS-based modeling Participatory GIS • Climate Impact Assessment • Stakeholders analysis • Multi-criteria assessment • Cost-benefit analysis • Pressure-State –Impact-Response • Remote Sensing - GIS NATIONAL LOCAL GLOBAL • Environmental action plan • Stakeholder survey/ workshops • Priority ranking matrix • Overlaying hazard maps • Action in context • Climate Livelihood Impact Matrix • Participatory GIS • Multi-criteria assessment • Climate Impact Assessment • Late Environmental Action Process • PRA • Climate change based action planning SECTORAL / STATIC

  3. GAPS • Scale – including global pressure on local vulnerability and adaptation • Validating the tools • Workshops and stakeholder participation • Secondary Data and statistical means • Communicating results to the end users

  4. GAPS • Standardizing methods: • Consensus on principles and framing • Experience and advice on matching methodology to user needs • Locally relevant choices of methods and tools

  5. GAPS • Additional tools available and not mentioned • Socio-economic scenarios, e.g., SRES • Sectoral integrated models, e.g., Agricultural trade • Decision and risk assessment tools, e.g., coping ranges, household economic

  6. Issues: Vulnerability • Link / support participatory VA and formal use of data and indicators • How to combine indicators, visualization and interpretation • How do livelihoods change in the future? • Conflicts over interpretation of vulnerability

  7. Issues: Planning Adaptation • Identify the link including projects between actors and their adaptive options • Prioritization in a program and strategy • Improvise techniques to match the needs • No one tool is adequate • Share experiences, e.g., common survey forms

  8. Issues: Planning Adaptation • Links to Planning – how to incorporate climate adaptation into existing processes • What are the common criteria? • Consensus and conflict resolution
