The consultation process The adaptation and resilience plans

The document uses a fictional scenario in Krishna Nagar, a low-income coastal neighbourhood in India, to demonstrate the process of climate vulnerability assessment and the subsequent creation of resilience plans. It highlights the challenges of community consultation and proposes a multi-sectoral approach to adaptation, including the establishment of disaster risk reduction networks, the use of green infrastructure like mangroves, and the improvement of early warning systems through partnerships with technical universities and mobile operators.

• Krishna Nagar faces multiple climate-driven threats, including sea level rise, frequent high waves, coastal flooding, and river bank bursts caused by heavier rain, which have led to evacuations and increased malaria deaths.
