Pro-Poor Climate Change Adaptation: A Research Agenda
Abstract
About 420 million people live in chronic poverty, the majority of them from South Asia and sub-Saharan
Africa. Poverty reduction efforts designed to help this group are threatened by climate change, but
climate change adaptation may also present developmental opportunities. A pro-poor adaptation
research agenda investigates how adaptation can provide pathways out of chronic poverty by going
beyond tackling the additional impacts of climate change.
