dc.descriptionThis policy brief examines the social dimension of ecosystem-based adaptation to climate change, focusing on its impacts across global, national, regional and local contexts and the social considerations required for effective design and implementation. It situates the approach within broader economic, environmental and societal challenges, highlighting its capacity to generate multiple benefits, including food security, livelihood improvement, employment and community resilience. The document draws on literature and practical experiences to outline methods such as stakeholder engagement, capacity building, integration of local knowledge and inclusive governance. It also emphasises enabling conditions, including policy integration, institutional support and resource availability, to ensure successful implementation and alignment with wider development objectives.
