Dr Katharine Vincent is in Kathmandu this week at the 5th Climate Change Adaptation Policy and Science (CCAPS) conference, taking place at the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD). The conference marks a final event for the Himalayan Adaptation, Resilience and Water (HiAWARE) project. The first day has the theme "Gendered vulnerability in the Hindu Kush Himalaya" and will include a panel discussion "Gendered vulnerabilities in a changing climate: reflections and learning", with representatives of other projects in the Collaborative Adaptation Research Initiative in Africa and Asia (CARIAA). The session will build on similar discussions held during Adaptation Futures 2018 in June in Cape Town. Katharine will represent the Deltas, Vulnerability and Climate Change: Migration and Adaptation (DECCMA) project in the panel discussion.
