A wind turbine installed in a village in Zimbabwe may help decrease vulnerability, thus improving villagers’ ability to cope with the effects of climate change. A study of the project concluded that "[i]n this case study, small-scale windpower eases water resource stress and contributes to climate change adaptation in two ways: (1) by providing energy for water pumping in otherwise energy-deprived areas, and (2) by easing fuelwood consumption in households whose livelihood opportunities have expanded with electrification."

This project aims to: (1) promote sustainable livelihoods for drylands (through irrigated crop production, crop diversification, small livestock production and marketing, grazing management, woodland management, wildlife management and ecotourism, production of small grains, improved post-harvest storage and processing facilities, water harvesting and management, community seed producers’ networks, community-based safety nets, training of communities in pasture management and establishment of fodder banks, training of communities in commercial seed production, and facilitation of community-bas

In 1993, the Community Drought Mitigation project embarked on providing technical support to farmers to improve their crop production while conserving soil and water.  A number of demonstrations were conducted.

This project will directly target the top two of the four articulated priorities in Yemen’s National Adaptation Plan of Action, namely: (1) improving community resilience to climate change through the development of sustainable rural livelihoods; and (2) improving agricultural production under erratic rains and changing climatic conditions.

The focus of this project is on combining a participatory approach and water modeling. The main objective of the project is to strengthen the capacity of the sectors, institutions, and Vietnamese people to adapt and respond to the climate change impacts. It aims to reduce their vulnerability to climate change and disasters by raising their understanding and preparedness to foresee impacts and minimize losses.

The Radio and Internet Project (RANET) implemented in Nakasongola district by World Vision and the Department of Meteorology enhanced collection and dissemination of early warning and climate information at the local level through radio and internet. Using a computer connected to the internet, the project provided timely information on climate and other development information for the people in the district. Through established channels of communication, the project then disseminated climate information to local farming communities in a timely manner.

The Karamoja Agro-pastoral Development Programme (KADP) implements an agro-pastoral development program in the semi-arid Moroto and Nakapiripirit districts in Karamoja, North East Uganda.  The most viable economic activities are extensive livestock keeping and growing of seasonal crops to supplement livestock and livestock products.  During drought, Karamojong women, children and old people are often left for months at a time without animals to provide them with milk.  Thus, the KADP started a breeding and propagation centre to produce crossbred dairy goats.  Each woman was given a goat, t

GTZ was the main implementor of this project, which consisted of analysis and development of a report and plan. The Tunisian agencies in charge of the project are the Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources and the General Directorate of Agricultural Studies and Development. Over the course of three conferences and 12 working meetings, the three agencies, along with the help of numerous Ministries and NGOs, produced a report on the impacts of climate change on the landscape and human activities, especially agriculture.

The impact of climate change and El Niño is increasingly causing coral reefs to bleach. WWF’s Friends of the Reef project is an effort to protect Asia Pacific’s coral reef ecosystems, which are the source of new coral recruits for reefs throughout the region and a source of livelihood for coastal people, especially in the fishery and tourism sectors. Friends of the Reef engages local stakeholders and decision makers in developing, testing, and implementing plans to increase coral reef resilience to major threats in the region, including climate change.

Mangrove forests are located in 23 coastal provinces in Thailand.  These forests used to cover 368,000 ha in Thailand in 1961, but the area dropped to 240,000 ha by 2002.  The major causes of the loss of mangrove forests are timber and charcoal industries, while some areas were converted for urbanization, agriculture, and aquaculture especially shrimp farms.  In 2004, a five-year Action Plan for Mangrove Management in the Gulf of Thailand was established to preserve mangrove forests, as well as to promote the sustainable use of mangrove resources.
