The main objective of this project is to build the resilience of local government units and communities and implement future-proof strategies for climate change and development.
In a capacity-building and participatory setting, the above goal is intended to be met through the following specific objectives:
- Capture the historical changes in the biophysical characteristics and sociopolitical processes of the province through forest fragmentation and narrative analyses, respectively;
- Conduct participatory and probabilistic climate change risk scenario assessments;
- Train the LGUs on effective utilization of risk assessments in designing climate change and other disaster-related actions and its mainstreaming in the Comprehensive Development Plan of the barangays, cities/municipalities, and the province; and,
- Distill and recommend policy-relevant frameworks and strategies for transformative multi-risk management and governance.
