| Tóm tắt: | The Netherlands recognizes the need to assist developing countries, not only to comply with its
own obligations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
(UNFCCC) but also to enable these countries to develop effective strategies to mitigate climate
change and adapt to the adverse effects thereof. Therefore, the Netherlands Climate Change
Studies Assistance Programme (NCCSAP) was launched in 1996. The first phase of the
NCCSAP is almost finished and the second phase, which has slightly different objectives, has
already started.
The Institute for Environmental Studies (IVM), which manages NCCSAP-I, took the initiative
to compile this book. An overview is presented of the most interesting results of the climate
studies carried out in the countries involved. Furthermore a critical evaluation is given of the
methodologies and approaches, and recommendations for future studies about climate change
in developing countries. This book does not pretend to be a summary of all NCCSAP studies;
rather, it gives the reader an impression of the work that has been carried out in the last 8 years
within the programme.
This book is meant for everyone who is involved in climate-related projects in developing
countries. Both researchers and policymakers can benefit from the experiences and evaluations
of the NCCSAP studies. Subjects dealt with include not only impact studies but also vulnerability
and adaptation, mitigation and climate-related policy. More about NCCSAP, in particular
about the second phase, can be found at www.nlcap.org |
