This book explores the uneven impacts of climate change and how it affects the lives and livelihoods of climate-disadvantaged communities and offers insights on conceptual frameworks to help vulnerable communities adapt and become more resilient to climate impacts. It includes real-life examples with challenges and actionable suggestions.
