Who should be involved in Climate Adaptation?
Climate Adaptation is a corporate and cooperative endeavour, a shared responsibility of all sectors of the community.
Because climate adaptation affects all, so, government and private institutions, public and private sectors, businesses and families, villages, and individuals shall participate.
Based on the global need for climate change adaptation, we have put together the Climate Adaptation Platform to address the climate adaptation challenges, particularly in Asia and the Pacific.
These are the two predominately developing regions that have been identified to be at highest risk of the extreme impacts of climate change.
