STATUS: Current
PROJECT LEADER:Hongoro, C (Prof. Charles)
OTHER TEAM MEMBERS: Shanker, TR (Ms Tanya), Krishnan, EM (Ms Estelle)
DEPARTMENT RESPONSIBLE: Developmental, Capable and Ethical State (DCES)

Abstract

seeks to develop a tool that will assist in quantifying the vulnerabilities based on a systematic analysis of the hazards towards the development of a vulnerability index and atlas at local level. The idea is to then propose local solutions that also take into account indigenous knowledge. In addition, the study will engage with communities to explore their understanding of climate change issues and share with them the results of Phase I fieldwork and co- create solutions.
