Climate change will have tremendous impacts on every human community across the globe. However, because of the context of both how climate is changing and how communities are organized and function, it can be disastrous to apply the same solutions across the board. This course will teach you the basic principles needed to identify the dynamics and needs of each community, build on its strengths, and adopt best practices and practical frameworks for adapting climate change solutions to local contexts.
