Supporting Investments in Water and Climate Change
This subproject will improve climate change projections for water management, and impact assessments and adaptation strategies for selected river basins and projects in these basins, with guidelines and advice to policy and decision makers. It will include close engagement with project and river basin managers, scientists and knowledge managers. Knowledge will be disseminated to leaders through a steering group of select policymakers, regulators and civil society representatives.

| Description of Project Outputs | A. Climate Change Projection and Adaptation Methodology Data and model system interfaces between agencies standardized. Model simulations and preliminary climate impact assessments developed. Preliminary "no regrets" climate change adaptation measures identified. Preliminary components of adaptation strategies, policies, and design protocols formulated. Demonstration of the methodological outputs in selected target river basins. B. Capacity Development for Climate Change Adaptation Scoping studies on climate change adaptation prepared. Preliminary "no regrets" climate change adaptation measures identified. Strengthened capacity of water management agencies and other stakeholders with respect to water and climate change strengthened. C. Guidelines for Policymakers and Practitioners Policy-makers and practitioners advised and supported on water and climate change. |
