Peru Climate Change Vulnerability and Adaptation Desktop Study

This report is intended to inform the in-country assessment process for possible future USAID/Peru-funded adaptation activities addressing climate change challenges. The report may also serve as a model for other USAID Missions that are beginning similar processes, by demonstrating what kinds of knowledge sources to review and what level of detail is appropriate and useful for project planning and design. It may also help Missions to understand the kinds of methodologies and approaches to use to set priorities and to focus on particular sectors or gaps to enhance their ability to integrate climate considerations and respond to the challenges posed by climate variability and change.
