- Summary:
- Iro investigates implications of adapting to climate change for development policy and practice, and possible entry points and key constraints for mainstreaming such adaptation. In particular, she asks why adapting to climate change has only recently reached the top of the agenda in development assistance. She also examines how development aid agencies in general, and the German organizations in particular, dealing with the challenge of climate change and adapting to it. The study began as her doctoral dissertation, perhaps at the University of Potsdam. It is not indexed. Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
