The Deltas, Vulnerability and Climate Change: Migration and Adaptation (DECCMA) project has released a new working paper, co-authored by Dr Katharine Vincent, entitled "A framework for the design and evaluation of adaptation pathways in large river deltas". DECCMA aims to identify gender-sensitive adaptation options that are appropriate for the 500 million people globally that live in large deltas. The paper outlines a number of potential adaptation pathways – based on different political development aspirations – and suitable criteria against which to measure the success of those pathways in enabling adaptation. This framework will inform DECCMA's system dynamics model that will be used to simulate future environmental change, migration patterns, and adaptation options in deltas in the context of a changing climate.
