This book highlights the current issues, challenges, and priorities
for climate change adaptation in the ten member states of the
Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The status of each
country was prepared by a consortium of researchers in consultation
with National Focal Points of the ASEAN Working Group on Climate
Change (AWGCC). National documents on adaptation actions, including
local scenario and priorities, were reviewed where available and
supplemented with an assessment of scientific publications to
identify vulnerable ecosystems and regions. Adaptation needs and
priorities were determined through stakeholder consultation in the
respective countries. This allows for local-level perspectives to
be captured and brought to the attention of policy and
decision-makers at the national and regional levels. An important
lesson from this exercise is that universities and research
institutions at the national level have a critical role to play in
bridging the gap between science and policy in climate change
adaptation. These institutions also have the capacity to
continuously facilitate transfer of the best available science for
advancing climate change adaptation at the local level.
