Climate change research, capacity building and communication on climate extremes over South Asia

Climate change is a global issue that significantly impacts various regions, including South Asia, which is particularly vulnerable to climate extremes. Extensive research is required to address the complex interplay between climate change and extreme weather events in South Asia (Bangladesh, Nepal and Pakistan). This study presents a case study of an Asia-Pacific Network for...

Barriers, needs and potential solutions to reducing vulnerability to global environment change for least developed countries in the Asia-Pacific Region

Least Developed Countries (LDCs) face a myriad of challenges, such as extreme poverty and immense pressure on natural resources that increase vulnerability to all forms of hazards. A synthesis on Global Environmental Change (GEC) and Sustainable Development in LDCs conducted in 12 Asia Pacific LDCs, built capacity and facilitated the integration of cross-scale information from...
