Climate Change Vulnerability Assessments: Policy Implications and the Business Case for Adaptation 2024 Fall

Climate Change Vulnerability Assessments: Policy Implications and the Business Case for Adaptation (this is not a self-paced course)

December 2 – 13, 2024

This course is designed to prepare students to utilize climate vulnerability assessment results and adaptation options in the development of the business case for adaptation in natural resource management systems. We will look at the intersection of climate change vulnerabilities, adapting management through the implementation of adaptation, and how this is used to inform and assess the economic elements of management and planning for climate change adaptation. We will also explore policy implications that affect adaptation management and decision-making in the business case for adaptation.
