Local approaches to harmonising climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction policies: Lessons from India
This briefing by the Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN) examines the challenges of integrating disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation policies in India, specifically focusing on the arid regions of Barmer and Leh. Based on action research by SEEDS India, the document highlights how a lack of coordination between government ministries leads to ineffective implementation and potential maladaptation, while advocating for the use of local multi-stakeholder platforms and post-disaster 'windows of opportunity' to drive policy convergence.
