This Technical Note serves as an explanatory reference that describes the work undertaken on the Vulnerability Assessment (VA) within the framework of the Regional Initiative for the Assessment of Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources and Socio-Economic Vulnerability in the Arab Region (RICCAR). The intention is to provide technical clarification of the vulnerability assessment methodology to develop the maps presented in the Arab Climate Change Assessment Report – Main Report and its Technical Annex which are issued under RICCAR in coordination with the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) and the other RICCAR implementing partners. This Technical Note also serves both as a supplement and update to the RICCAR Training Manual on the Integrated Vulnerability Assessment Methodology.
