*Background*

* *

Community-based adaptation (CBA) recognizes that environmental knowledge,
vulnerability and resilience to climate impacts are embedded in societies
and cultures. This means the focus is on empowering communities to take
action based on their own decision-making processes. Increased resilience
to climate stresses can be achieved by enabling communities to enhance
their capacity to cope with climate extremes and surprises, such as
hurricanes, floods or droughts. With a view to sharing the latest
developments in CBA planning and practices in different sectors and
countries globally, and disseminate this knowledge more broadly, Vietnam
will host the Sixth International Conference on Community – Based
Adaptation (CBA6) from 16th to 22nd April 2012. The theme of this year’s
Conference is: “*Communicating Community – Based Adaptation*”.

•         Raising public awareness on Climate Change and Community-Based
