Training Manual on the Integrated Vulnerability Assessment Methodology (2017)Add to learning list

This training manual is prepared as part of the United Nations-League of Arab States Regional Initiative for the Assessment of the Impact of Climate Change on Water Resources and SocioEconomic Vulnerability in the Arab Region (RICCAR). The manual was developed by the Arab Center for the Study of Arid Zones and Dry Lands (ACSAD) of the League of Arab States, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH and the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) in partnership with the League of Arab States. The integrated vulnerability assessment methodology takes a regional perspective on climate change vulnerability in the Arab countries. It thus concentrates on key sectors and climate change impacts relevant throughout the Arab region, providing entry points for a regional dialogue on joint adaptation efforts to cope with the challenges of climate change in the Arab region.
