02 Jun 2013 | by coraltriangleinitiative.net
More than 30 representatives from the Coral Triangle Initiative (CTI) countries – Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Solomon Islands, and Timor-Leste - gathered in Dili on May 29-31, 2013 to launch a new guidebook that will help coastal communities in the region adapt to the growing threats of climate change.
The guide called Climate Change Adaptation for Coral Triangle Communities: A Guide for Vulnerability Assessment and Local Early Action Planning is a comprehensive set of cutting-edge scientific and social instruments that local governments and communities can use to conduct climate outreach to their constituents. It can be used to help communities assess their vulnerability to climate change and help them form their own climate change adaptation plans that address local conditions.
