The UN World Water Assessment Programme - Dialogue Paper - Water and Climate Change: Citizen Mobilization, a Source of Solutions

The objective of this paper is to discuss the responses of communities in the current context of consideration of extreme events and climate change, and to do so while demonstrating the importance of the commitment of leaders in this process. We begin by defining climate change, adaptation and the vulnerabilities associated with this phenomenon; we then describe sustainable adaptation strategies linked to specific real-world cases, and, finally, we discuss and propose possible solutions through the experience of the ISW and its partners in development, an approach that we believe is essential in a context of climate change.
