By 2025, coastal areas of Pakistan and neighbouring regions have climate resilient ecosystems to support the livelihood/lives of coastal communities. The specific objective for 5 years period (2011-2015) of the project is that “ By 2015, government and community climate adaptation capacity is increased and water governance strengthened, to improve climate resilience of Indus Delta ecosystem process on which coastal communities depend, supported by regional and transboundary cooperation on adaptation in river deltas.” To support these objectives CCAP intends to conduct a holistic delta-wide vulnerability assessment to inform the development of climate adaptation plans. The delta-wide vulnerability assessment will guess the health of ecosystems across the Indus Delta and in the three selected sites (Keti Bunder, Kharo Chann in District Thatta; and Jiwani in District Gawadar).
