La justicia climática en una adaptación basada en ecosistemas: El caso de la zona costera de Soc Trang, Vietnam

El caso de Vietnam / Soc Trang ilustra la importancia de la justicia climática como condición previa para proteger con éxito y de forma sostenible los manglares. Los manglares protegen la costa y a la población de tormentas e inundaciones. Además, el ecosistema proporciona otros beneficios colaterales, como el aumento de los ingresos a través de la pesca, al proporcionar zonas de cría, alimento, refugio y hábitat para una amplia gama de especies acuáticas. El caso pone de relieve cómo un enfoque de aplicación basado en la justicia reforzó la participación igualitaria y los beneficios de un enfoque de cogestión, que promovió activamente diferentes dimensiones de la justicia climática.

Climate Resilience – What can we learn from Pastoral Systems in Africa’s Drylands?

This policy brief gives an overview of pastoral systems in Africa's drylands in the face of a changing climate – and serves as a short version of a technical background paper. It highlights the remarkable ability of pastoralists to adapt to the impacts of climate change, gives valuable insights and offers lessons e.g. for smallholder farming in drylands. The publication explores key factors enabling and hampering the resilience of pastoral systems. It demonstrates the link between pastoralists’ climate resilience and agroecological principles of good governance and diversification.

Pastoralism and Resilience of Food Production in the Face of Climate Change

This technical background paper dives deep into pastoral systems in Africa's drylands in the face of a changing climate – and complements a shorter policy brief. It highlights the remarkable ability of pastoralists to adapt to the impacts of climate change, gives valuable insights and offers lessons e.g. for smallholder farming in drylands. The publication explores key factors enabling and hampering the resilience of pastoral systems. It demonstrates the link between pastoralists’ climate resilience and agroecological principles of good governance and diversification. As an appropriate enabling environment is based on good governance, access to land and water, strong customary institutions, diversification and integration of different systems.

Projection Guidance of South Vietnam Drought

For the current Cai Be/Cai Lon sluice gate location in southern Vietnam, an ensemble of global climate models can provide some future guidance of precipitation change from present conditions, which can help inform future expectations of meteorological drought. Using the RSI CCHIP tool, ensemble average projections of future precipitation are provided using an ensemble of all AR5 assessment GCMs under the high emission scenario (RCP8.5).

Portfolio Screening: Impacts and Risks of Climate Change to Brazilian Coastal Public Ports – Executive Summary

Coping with the consequences of climate change is one of the most complex challenges of Brazil. The port sector is among the sectors that can directly face the impacts from climate change -- specially because port infrastructure is highly exposed to climatic hazards. The report includes a climate risk assessment for 21 public ports with actionable policy recommendations. This Portfolio Screening is based on the PIEVC Protocol.

PIEVC Green Protocol — Integrating Ecosystem-based Adaptation into Infrastructure Climate Risk Assessments

The PIEVC Green Protocol describes a step-by-step methodology of risk assessment and optional engineering analysis for evaluating the risk of climate change on infrastructure, while considering the broader social and environmental systems within which the infrastructure component is situated. Information developed through the assessment process will assist owners, operators and other professionals, to effectively incorporate climate change adaptation into design, development and management of existing and planned infrastructure and its surrounding environment, including ecosystems.
