Abstract

This report communicates the local, practical experiences and learning from one of the first action research projects on community-based climate change adaptation interventions in Bangladesh: Assistance to Local Communities on Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Reduction piloted by ActionAid Bangladesh and funded by the Embassy of Denmark. It is an action research project that facilitated local people’s analysis of their own vulnerability towards climate change and piloted a variety of community-based adaptation measures.
