IWMI’s vulnerability mapping shapes Sri Lanka’s National Climate Change Adaptation Strategy
IWMI and its partners, Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA) and
National Council for Disaster Management, Ministry of
Disaster Management and Human Rights, Sri Lanka,
conducted a study ‘Impact of Climate Change on Water
Resources and Agriculture in Sri Lanka: A Review and
Preliminary Vulnerability Mapping’, which significantly
influenced Sri Lanka’s climate change strategies and policies.
The study, a first of its kind, provided background information
and identified research gaps on the impacts of climate
change on the agricultural sector and water resources.
