If experienced development organizations are finding it difficult to solve decades-old development problems, how will they additionally solve new challenges driven by climate change? A Field Guide to Community Based Adaptation illustrates how including community members in project design and co-management leads to long-lasting, successful achievement of development and adaptation goals.This field guide provides a system of building block activities for staff on the ground to use in developing and implementing successful adaptation to climate change projects that can be co-managed and sustained by communities. Based on years of experience in 129 different countries, the field guide uses a step-by-step progression to lead readers through problem assessment, project design, implementation, and community take over. The book equips development staff with all the tools and techniques they need to improve current project effectiveness, to introduce community based adaptation into organizational programming and to generate new projects. The techniques provided can be applied to broad range of challenges, from agriculture and drainage problems, to health concerns, flood defences and market development. The book is supported by a user-friendly website updated by the author, where readers can download online resources for each chapter which they can tailor to their own specific projects.This practical guide is accessible to all levels of development staff and practitioners, as well as to students of development and environmental studies. "-- a"This innovative field guide argues that in order to combat climate change we must work 'from the ground up' using dynamic community projects. A Field Guide to Community Based Adaptation is arranged in a step-by-step progression that leads readers through problem assessment, project design, implementation, and community take over. Based on years of experience in 116 different countries, the field guide provides students and professionals with all the tools needed to develop and deliver their own projects."-- aPPDM, ARC 0aClimatic changesxEconomic aspectszUnited States.951352 0aCommunity developmentzUnited States.951353 7aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Economic Development.2bisacsh951354 7aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Sustainable Development.2bisacsh951355 7aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Environmental Economics.2bisacsh951356 aAyesha Abed LibrarycGeneral Stacks 2ddccBK 00102ddc4070aBRACULbBRACULcGENd2022-09-12eBook Finder Internationalg2503.00l0o363.7387456973 MAGp3010039614r2022-09-12t1v2503.00w2022-09-12yBK
