The present study addresses the urgent need to link disaster reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA), while critically reflecting on opportunities and limitations. On the basis of a review of current strategies to link DRR and CCA at the international, national and local level and around 59 standardized as well as non-standardized expert interviews with national and international experts of diverse professional backgrounds, this report summarizes the challenges for a fruitful integration. In addition, it gives guidance for the future direction by providing practical recommendations and quality criteria for developing effective strategies for adaptation to extreme events.
