The Vulnerability Reduction Assessment (VRA) has been chosen for this project. The VRA was employed using pictures and simple language to let all members of the community engage in the project development. The methodology was based on the following four indicators: 1. Vulnerability of livelihood/welfare to existing climate change and/or climate variability 2. Vulnerability of livelihood/welfare to developing climate change risks 3. Magnitude of barriers (institutional, policy, technological, financial, etc) barriers to adaptation. 4. Ability and willingness of the community to sustain the project intervention The local stakeholders were asked the above questions and their answers were evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5 generating a numerical score, as well as other qualitative data based on the discussions leading to the eventual score. 30 members of the Grand-Sable Fishermen Association were involved in this activity. The same members also took the lead in the identification of the potential sites and in discussing the logistical/ management arrangements for the project implementation phase. The length of implementation of the project is 2 years. Progress of the project is monitored closely by the project manager and the funding agencies.

描述用于开发解决方案的基于社区的流程，包括使用的工具和流程
the community should be sensitized further and capacity building activities should be undertaken to empower the local community so that they could take appropriate actions to adapt to the effects of climate change.
关注的气候危害
您的解决方案如何减少暴露和缓冲/保护受影响的生态系统？
Coastal flooding or storm surge
How has your solution increased the capacity of the ecosystem to adapt to potential climate changes?
Pollution of the lagoon is expected to be reduced as the construction of the drainage system will prevent run off from the mountains to be deposited in the lagoon.
您的解决方案如何减少受影响社区的暴露并缓冲/保护受影响的社区？
Development behind mangroves will be prohibited such that they are able to grow inland as natural progression with sea level rise.
您的解决方案如何降低受影响社区的敏感性？
The plantation of mangroves will reduce the impact of coastal erosion on the coastal infrastructures and the houses.
您的解决方案如何提高当地社区适应潜在气候变化的能力？
The setting up of the mangrove nursery has allowed the fishermen to get an additional income as the rise in sea surface temperature has resulted in a decrease in the number of fish catch.

Mangrove propagules were collected prior to the construction of the mangrove nurseries. This resulted in the drying of most of the mangrove propagules. The mangrove propagules collection activity had to be repeated. The potential risks associated with this solution are: ? Severe weather condition delaying collection of propagules and plantation phase
