About

Climate change is a complex phenomenon that affects every region of the world, including the Indian subcontinent. It refers to the gradual increase in the Earth’s average surface temperature caused by human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrialization. While the impacts of climate change are being felt all over the world, some countries are more vulnerable to its effects than others, and India is one of them. India is one of the most climate-vulnerable countries in the world due to its large population, high levels of poverty, and dependence on agriculture and natural resources.

The country has vast deserts, fertile plains, high mountain ranges, and a long coastline. The country is known for its extreme weather events such as heatwaves, droughts, floods, agricultural losses and cyclones. Climate change is expected to exacerbate these extreme weather events, leading to significant social, economic, and environmental impacts. Indian subcontinent is facing a range of complex and interrelated climate change impacts, which will require a coordinated and sustained response from all the stakeholders- individuals, organizations, communities, governments, civil society, and the private sector.

IMPRI, along with IMPRI Center for Environment, Climate Change, and Sustainable Development (CECCSD) introduces this course to initiate a discussion around climate change in India and encourage the effective adaptation and mitigation strategies. The participants will explore essential and unique approaches to ensure how the region can cope with these challenges and build a more resilient future.
