Climate Justice in Ecosystem-based Adaptation: The case of Soc Trang coastal zone, Vietnam
The case of Vietnam / Soc Trang illustrates the importance of climate justice as a precondition for successfully and sustainably protecting mangrove forests. Mangrove forests protect the coast and people from storms and flooding. Additionally, the ecosystem provides other co-benefits, like the increase of income through fisheries by providing nursery grounds, food, shelter and habitat for a wide range of aquatic species. The case highlights how a justice-based implementation approach strengthened equal participation and benefits of a co-management approach, which actively promoted different dimensions of climate justice.
The Gender-responsiveness of InsuResilience Projects
The study investigated the extent to which policy commitment at the IGP level is realized at the programme and project levels with the aim of measuring the gender-responsiveness of the IGP programmes and projects. This report serves to understand challenges and approaches for solution to design projects in a gender-responsive manner for effective Climate and Disaster Risk Finance and Insurance.
Synergies between adaptation, biodiversity, and mitigation: How Ecosystem-based Adaptation can build bridges between Nationally Determined Contributions and the new Global Biodiversity Framework
At the 15th Conference of the Parties (COP15) of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity held in December 2022, the new Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) has been adopted. Based on these developments, the publication on synergies between adaptation, biodiversity and mitigation takes this new international reality into account. After some general considerations on the role of EbA in building bridges, the authors of the study apply this perspective to three cases (Pakistan, Jordan and Costa Rica), exploring synergies of ecosystem-based approaches in the water, agriculture and urban sectors.
Analyse des risques climatiques pour l’identification et la pondération des stratégies d’adaptation dans le secteur agricole du Niger
L’étude se concentre sur l’évolution des tendances en matière de température et de précipitations, sur la disponibilité future de l’eau et sur l’aptitude du pays à cultiver des cultures dans différents scénarios d’émissions. Les projections de l’étude vont jusqu’en 2090, ce qui permet non seulement d’examiner les tendances à court terme (2030), mais aussi de prendre en compte les impacts du changement climatique à moyen (2050) et à long terme. En outre, l’étude entreprend une analyse coûts-bénéfices des actions d’adaptation sélectionnées, sur la base de laquelle des “business cases” pour l’adaptation peuvent être identifiés.
Climate Risk Analysis for Identifying and Weighing Adaptation Strategies in Niger’s Agricultural Sector
The study focuses on evolving trends for temperature and precipitation, future water availability and the country’s suitability to grow crops under different climate change scenarios. The study’s projections go up to 2090, offering opportunities not only to look into short-term trends (2030), but also to take into account medium (2050) and long-term climate change impacts. In addition, the study undertakes a cost-benefit analysis of selected adaptation actions on which basis “business cases” for adaptation can be identified.

BALIK PROBINSYA: A phenomenological case study of pandemic-related reverse migration from Metro Manila to Leyte province, Philippines
The Balik Probinsya program is a longterm program of the government intended for Metro Manila residents who want to return to their provinces “for good.” This paper is interested in determining the effects of this reverse migration on the rural areas and the loss of remittances from these returning migrants on the community of origin, especially any adaptation to climate change activities.

Hacia una adaptación basada en ecosistemas con enfoque de género: Por qué es necesaria y cómo conseguirla
Este informe tiene dos propósitos: ilustrar la importancia de integrar las cuestiones de género en las medidas AbE y brindar ejemplos reales de cómo se puede realizar esto en la práctica. Este informe está diseñado para quienes practican la AbE y quienes tienen la responsabilidad política sobre la adaptación, incluidas las personas encargadas de tomar decisiones del gobierno y el personal de soporte técnico, las organizaciones de la sociedad civil, las empresas del sector privado y las instituciones de investigación.
A City in Motion – Migration, Climate Change, and Governance in Baguio City
Baguio City is known for being a migration magnet as well as for having reached its ideal population size decades ago. This study attempted to examine and link three strands in Baguio City: migration, climate change (particularly slow onset events), and governance.
