Resume

The Integrated Action for Climate Change Resilience and Livelihood in Mountainous Tanzania and Rwanda (Phase II) project aims to build climate change resilience in 24 mountainous communities in Rwanda and Tanzania. In first phase’s vulnerability assessment and learning from implementation of climate change adaptation activities in 12 villages in Tanzania and Rwanda informed the context and methodology of the project’s second phase. The project continues to apply a participatory community approach for developing locally owned approaches to climate change adaptation - developed and applied in 24 vulnerable communities. The intervention aims to strengthen community-based structures and involve relevant stakeholders, institutions, and duty bearers, for ensuring local anchorage and sustainability of the results. Finally, the project aims to advocate for the integration of key adaptation measures in local district planning.
