Synopsis

Local Adaptation Plans of Action (LAPA) are community-based approaches that take a ‘vulnerability first’ approach to climate change adaptation. The study reveals that there was an effective communication process within a time frame with specified participants. The representation of poor and vulnerable (P&V) households in LAPA formulation is quite appreciative. P&V households are capable enough to put the voice on the floor. The study concluded that after the implementation of LAPA, spring conservation activities were accelerated and enabled the water resources; local people especially P&V households started applying adaptive measures with their local innovations and external knowledge. On the other hand, it was observed that their lives were changed. It is recommended that there should be an enabling environment so that those households take stake and take ownership; documented process and procedure should be implemented for effective results; a multi-sectoral approach should be applied to hit the issue; it should facilitate a process of cross learning and sharing between and across district level and local level.
