Development and climate change project: concept paper on scope and criteria for case study selection

Abstract

This document outlines the analytical framework for an OECD project on Development and Climate Change. A three-tier framework is also described for the project case studies that will provide a country-level overview of principal climate change impacts and vulnerabilities, followed by an in-depth analysis at a sectoral or regional/local level on how climate responses could be mainstreamed into particular development policies and projects. The primary emphasis of the case studies will be on adaptation responses, although one or more case studies may also examine mitigation responses that relate to natural resource management.
