Climate Change Adaptation Governance in Water Sector?

01 January 2014 1 3K Report

I am planning to start a research on Climate Change Adaptation Governance in Water Sector in the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna River basin in near future. Do you have experience of similar studies in any parts of the world, including South Asia? Any research framework or methodology you can quickly advise? Thanks!

Thanks so much John. Read this one. Looks useful. Unfortunately I found the author silent on research framework. But it forms a good basis for research at next level. Thanks a ton!
