VCCCAR project: framing adaptation in the Victorian context - framing climate change adaptation in policy and practice

Working Paper 1:

This working paper aims to describe what ‘adapting’ to climate change means by clarifying commonly used terminology and how these different concepts are used in policy development in Australia, and other parts of the world. This is the first working paper produced from the project: ‘Framing multi-level and multi-actor adaptation responses in the Victorian context’. The 18-month project aims to develop and test an operational framing of adaptation which will subsequently act as a decision-making ‘roadmap’ to better inform adaptation policy and practice by Victorian authorities at the local and regional levels.
