Abstract

There is a growing number of policies, guidelines and plans of action related to climate change with special attention to adaptation at different scales of global, regional, national and local levels. Each scale consists of a wide array of stakeholders with different roles and inter-relations. This research indicates that these stakeholders take their actions as directed by their own institutional mandates not necessarily as part of an integrated policy in adaptation to climate change. Such institutional fragmentation creates a gap in the implementation of an integrated policy both in climate information supply and in the delivery of climate services at local and community levels. The purposes of this research is to introduce a landbased strategic model for climate change adaptation services by integrating a variety of plans of action from the sectoral national policies related to land, environment, agriculture, forestry, meteorology and hydrology.
