IWRM a Tool for Adaptation to Climate Change

This training manual is developed to assist capacity builders in developing training and educational programmes on the use of IWRM tools and instruments for adaptation to climate change impacts. The material is intended to increase our understading of climate change impacts and what we can do now. Improving the way we manage water resources now will help us adapt in the future. Developed in partnership between Cap-Net, WMO/APFM, UNESCO-IHE, REDICA and Rhama, the format and contents of the manual are flexible enough to be adapted to different purposes and as such it could be used for short courses, educational programmes and awareness campaigns.

The training manual and supporting Powerpoints will be available in five languages: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Chinese. We are willing to upload other language versions if you have translated the material. All materials (with additional reference documents in English) are available on CD.
