Video: Global Climate Change Plans Meet Local Realities

Findings from the Climate Change and Rural Institutions research program

The world is preparing for COP21, which is expected to set the agenda for action and determine how resources are to be mobilised to respond to climate change. But even if more resources become available, how will the decisions made translate into action on the ground? At this seminar held on 16 September 2015, a group of DIIS and international researchers presented findings from theClimate Change and Rural Institutions research programme- how institutions are changing in response to climate change and what this implies for the transformations that are being proposed at COP21 in Paris.
