A major proportion of Bhutan’s population is settled in fertile valleys along a number of river systems. When Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOF) occur, the lives and property of many people are at risk. The NCAP supported a GLOF hazard zonation mapping exercise along the...

The coastline of Bangladesh is particularly vulnerable to the sea level rise. The tropical cyclones, which strike the coastal areas periodically, lead to loss of life and property  besides harming the ecosystem. A combination of participatory approaches and scientific tools and data was adopted in the NCAP Bangladesh...

Like other Sub-Saharan countries, Mali has been subject to an unprecedented drought since the seventies. To seek solutions to this problem, different studies were conducted under the NCAP project in Kiban, Diouna, and Massabla to understand the use of water resources by various population groups...

The GEF assistance will be targeted at improving adaptive capacity to address climate change concerns at the national level.  It will also, together with individual country, co-finance the implementation of pilot projects that reduce vulnerability to climate impacts which countries themselves have identified on the basis...

The goal of the project is to reduce vulnerability of coastal communities to the impacts of climate change and variability. This is sought to be done by improving the resilience of coastal populations, settlements, and ecosystems in areas exposed to coastal hazards. Read more: Adaptation Learning Mechanism...

The project will integrate climate risk projections into existing disaster risk management practices and implement capacity development measures. The project will demonstrate practical measures to reduce climate change-induced glacier lake outburst floods (GLOF)risks from Thorthormi Lake, and facilitate replication of lessons learned in other high-risk...
