Summary

Tearfund’s report aims to provide guidance on how climate risk-based approaches can be integrated into national-level policy and programme planning in the water sector. The guide is divided into four tasks each with a set of sub-tasks. The four tasks are to: establish an understanding of climate change risk and key actors; strengthen national policy frameworks; develop and implement a climate-resilient action plan for the water sector; and track performance, adjust to changes, and make improvements. It also includes a sequence of steps and suggested approaches to break down activities further.
