Mainstreaming adaptation to climate change in least developed countries
Working paper 1: country by country vulnerability to climate change:
This report provides information on the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in relation to their population size, reliance on certain sectors, vulnerabilities to climate change, and current or recommended strategies for climate change adaptation. Most information has been obtained from United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) data, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and National Communications (NC) Strategies. The varying length of each country report reflects the difference in levels of information available for each country from these documents.
It is aimed to be a resource to governments, NGOs, researchers and practitioners working with LDCs in relation to their adaptation to climate change.
