Abstract
|
In recent years, vulnerability assessments (vulnerability assessments) have increasingly
been used to identify climate change impact hotspots and to provide
input for adaptation and development planning at local, national and regional
levels. Vulnerability assessments assumed particular significance in the context
of the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process. This process was established in
2010 as part of the Cancun Adaptation Framework to complement existing shortterm
national adaptation programmes of action (NAPAs). It aims at reducing the
vulnerability of developing countries, especially the least developed countries
(LDCs) and the most vulnerable groups, by addressing medium- and long-term
adaptation needs. Consequently, assessment of climate change vulnerabilities at
different levels is an integral part of NAP implementation, as emphasised by the
Technical Guidelines for the National Adaptation Plan Process (LEG 2012).
