Published on
 

The motivation of this report was to highlight the economic rationale to invest in climate change adaptation. To this end the report describes an assessment of the potential cost of climate change impacts on cocoa production in West Africa. There is a hope that by providing a benchmark for the cost of inaction it becomes easier for stakeholders to argue for the benefits from investments in climate change adaptation.
