Mainstreaming adaptation to climate change into decision making in the water sector : concepts and case studies from South Africa.
Year: 2015
Type: dissertation
Abstract: dialogues do offer the space for relevant and focussed knowledge exchange and for learning conversations, which can successfully develop integrated adaptation management plans.For any future action research, a better understanding of the diverse windows of opportunity that revealed themselves in each step of the research journey has to be gained.Furthermore, one needs to better understand how leadership can ensure mainstreaming of climate change into day-to-day decision making.Only then will successful design and implementation of adaptation interventions be possible.Such leadership might then be able to learn from the various pockets of innovations that exist in South Africa and trigger a sustainable and continuous way of adapting to climate change in the water sector.
