The World Wide Fund for Nature – Pakistan’s (WWF-P’s) Building Capacity on Climate Change Adaptation in Coastal Areas of Pakistan or CCAP project (see www.wwfpak.org) envisages establishing climate resilient ecosystems that sustain Pakistani coastal communities’ livelihoods by 2025. To fulfill this objective, a 5-year action programme (2011-2015) initially focuses on Kharo Chan, Keti Bunder, (and Jiwani, a research but not an action site) for vulnerability assessments, climate adaptation plans, and policy mainstreaming to secure adaptation and climate resilient investment into sectoral and local development plans. This report details results of socioeconomic baselines based on field surveys carried out at Kharo Chan, Keti Bunder, and Jiwani.
