Thaketa Community Climate Adaptation

The Thaketa Community Climate Adaptation project is a 2-year pilot project aiming to design, implement and evaluate a variety of climate adaptation interventions in the Thaketa township in Yangon, Myanmar.

In the pilot project, the partners established an innovative network-driven stakeholder participation process for designing and implementing different types of climate adaptation interventions, based on the social innovation approach from one of the most successful, innovative climate adaptation programs in the Netherlands: Amsterdam Rainproof. The project is supported by community awareness and education campaigns and capacity building for city government staff.
