Abstract

This assessment was led by a team of international and national experts and was conducted through a systematic step by step approach applying participatory methods. The climate vulnerability was assessed for eight sectors at the Upazila level: Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries, Navigation, Transport and Infrastructure, Water Resources, Biodiversity, Natural Disasters and Human Health. With this, the NCVA may serve as a tool to take on an integrated climate vulnerability perspective beyond the commonly regarded domains of flood risk and water management.
