Indeed, in this current context of climatic change, more and more governments and institutions wish to know more about the situation of the population or regions they are in charge.
What is at risk, which sectors are the most exposed to climate change (CC), what are the main risks caused by CC, who is exposed to, how could we avoid, cope with risks, adapt?
Several conceptual frameworks have been developed recently to help to reply to these questions. The goal of the course is to give the knowledge base necessary to design and implement such assessment as well as understand the political and economic stakes behind.
This course will combine didactic lectures and hands-on sessions. International examples will be used.
Dr. Marion Borderon worked in several countries (mainly North and Sub-Saharan Africa region) with different institutions to help them implement a vulnerability assessment to climate change. She has notably worked with the GIZ (Die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit) in several projects responsible for the design and implementation of such assessment in the field of climate change adaptation.
