Rising sea levels, shifting rainfall and other impacts of climate change present a huge risk to some of the world

This paper presents a conceptual framework that turns the mainstream adaptation discourse upside down, with understanding and respect for autonomous adaptation as the starting point for a new agenda to manage the human dimensions of climate change.

Climate change is a global issue which is of concern to the entire international community. In view of the rapid increases in urbanization that have occurred in countries of Asia, including Thailand, over the past several decades, the impacts of climate change are starting to occur and are expected to be especially serious in the not too distant future.

The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) made important recommendations on how agriculture could mitigate GHG emissions. This report summarizes these recommendations and then compares them to scientific data from organic agriculture in order to assess the mitigation potential of organic farming.

This Policy Guidance is intended to provide policy makers and practitioners in development co-operation agencies with information and advice on how to mainstream climate change into development.

This climate adaptation booklet highlights the sector and geo-climatic impacts of climate change, and the development challenges facing the Asia-Pacific region.

These changes cannot be achieved unless climate change is taken into account in the general and sector-specific policies essential for economic activities and general social development.
