Local Climate Change Governance and Making Climate Resilient Town: The Role of Local Authorities
Local institutions are increasingly challenged to respond to make resilient town under climate. Effective local adaptation requires local institutions that is able to adapt to the uncertainties associated with climate change. For the role of local authorities (Municipality) to make climate resilient town here at first the conceptual framework was developed and the research design was conducted. In the data collection level the data were collected through two ways and these are primary data collection and secondary data source. The selection process of stakeholders was on the basis of their potentiality to develop climate resilience actions at the community, city and policy level, supporting capacity that is essential to implement resilience actions at community and city. As per their valuable opinions five fragile urban systems are identified those are impacted and in risks of climate change. These show how resilience to disasters is being conceived and addressed by local governments. The local government as a key actor execute the functions at different scales and tools and different approaches to governing climate action in cities were found. We also found different criteria based adaptation measures as like as the tree plantation in the first ranked adaptation measures and construction and repair of embankment as the second ranked adaptation measures and so on. Ten challenges were identified and among them lack of funding for implementation (86% perception) and lack of institutional coordination (80% perception) were major challenges for planning and implementation of climate resilient town.
