Preface
With this handbook, we attempt to make a contribution to the current imperative discussion on climate change, its impacts felt on the local level by communities and opportunities for adaptation and vulnerability reduction. It is predominantly dedicated to urban communities that are presently and will be in the future affected by climate variability, by flooding and by thermal discomfort. The handbook traces the adaptation approach of one local community in Ho Chi Minh City and makes the tools utilised available to other communities with a similar exposure portfolio, as well as to civil society organizations and local governmental institutions which can support adaptation processes within their own spheres of influence. Hereby, we would like to thank the local government of District 4, Ward 8, and all members of enda Vietnam for their invaluable support. Nevertheless, this project could not have been possible without the spirit and enthusiasm of the model community; to them we wish to express our heartfelt appreciation and our sincerest thanks.

The handbook is divided up into five parts: The 1st part summarizes the causes and drivers of climate change from a global perspective, whereas the 2nd part highlights the impacts on Ho Chi Minh City and on precarious settlements in particular. In the 3rd part, community-based adaptation is presented as one feasible approach to respond to climate stimuli, outlining the set-up, implementation and results of our model project. Part 4 gives instructions to stimulate adaptation processes in other communities and lists measures which can be easily implemented. Parts 1 to 4 contain materials for capacity-building and awareness-raising; all assessment, decision-making and evaluation tools used in the model project are compiled and prepared for individual use in part 5. 3

HCMC is Vietnams largest urban agglomeration and of great importance for matters of economic growth and modernization. The city is the main target area of foreign direct investment and attracts great numbers of migrants from rural areas seeking jobs and a better living standard; current projections show that the population of HCMC will reach 10 million people by 20209. As a result, large parts of the city have become built-up in the course of rapid and uncontrolled urbanization. A great number of precarious settlements have also evolved around the citys outskirts or on vacant land in the city centre, in low-lying areas and alongside canals, being characterized by severe infrastructure shortcomings and the lack of urban services10. HCMC ranks amongst the cities most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change; the metropolis is exposed to climatic extremes, the increasing likelihood of severe storms and tidal flooding11. As 72% of HCMCs urban area lies below two metres above the current mean sea-level, it is exceptionally at risk by inundation caused by changes in sea-level rise12. Currently, the
reach of tidal influence into the urban canals causes periodic flooding events in adjacent areas. In addition, heavy rainfall events are increasing in number and intensity. Besides flooding events related to climate change and sea-level rise, HCMC is affected by rising temperatures; the annual average temperature of the urban area is 26.9C. However, the annual average temperature has increased at a rate nearly double that of the surrounding Mekong Delta region in the recent past13 and will further rise by 1 - 2C till 205014; this is due to the escalating heat production from air conditioning units, transportation and industry as well as due to the on-going surface sealing, which reduces vegetation cover and natural cooling areas. The figure on the adjacent page shows a flooding scenario for the year 2050 for the current urban extent of HCMC, taking into account a projected sea-level rise of 1.5m15. It highlights all built-up and non built-up areas which will be at risk by future inundation caused by rising sea levels. For more information take a look at our website: www.megacity-hcmc.org

Community-Based Adaptation
Adaptation is the response to current or projected future changes in climate - from the national to the local level. Community-Based Adaptation (CBA) enables vulnerable communities to build resilient livelihoods and to take action within their living environment and their own sphere of influence using their own resources and capacities.
Successful adaptation efforts have to be undertaken from the national to the local level19, they require the linking of indigenous knowledge and practices provided by communities with the projections and adaptation research of the wider scientific community as well as to a supportive policy environment. All communities cope with and adapt to climatic or environmental changes; while coping strategies may be temporary or emergency solutions in times of difficulty or hardship, adaptation signifies permanent changes in livelihood systems20 and therefore strives to be more sustainable. CBA enables local communities to strengthen their own existing adaptive capacity and to build resilient livelihoods, to reduce their individual vulnerability and disaster risk21, 22. CBA combines long-term strategies, such as structural adaptation and livelihood diversification, with short- and medium term strategies, such as temporary migration, the setting up of warning systems and evacuation plans. Local communities know their area very well; they have the capacity to assess the local impacts of climate change on a day-to-day basis and to find individual solutions to respond. In order to avoid the affects of maladaptation, they need to be provided with further information on climate change impacts and on existing larger-scale adaptation plans. In CBA processes, communities have full control over assessments, planning and the implementation of adaptation measures; they also play a vital role in awareness raising by sharing their local site knowledge. They can be assisted significantly by civil society organizations and the local government, who can provide information, capacity-building, adaptation and community mobilization activities.

are notably aggravated by the inadequacy of the drainage system, the blocking of drains as well as by landfill projects undertaken in adjoining areas. As a reason for heat stress, the lack of vegetation was identified. 2nd Workshop (May 2010) The 2nd Community Workshop addressed capacity-building for low-tech adaptation. The applicability of presented small-scale measures were discussed in small groups. In a plenary session, the measures to be collectively implemented were selected: The growing of plants by the roadside, on balconies or rooftops in order to benefit from the cooling effect of shade and evapo-transpiration, the initiation of waste management activities to avoid the littering and blocking of drains and the cleaning up of living spaces to allow for natural ventilation.
Implementation Phase Following the 2nd Workshop, the chosen adaptation measures and strategies were implemented within a fixed timeframe. 3rd Workshop (July 2010) The 3rd Community Workshop focused on the evaluation of initial adaptation activities. Besides the implemented measures, the community started to save energy and to utilize reusable environmentally friendly carrier bags instead of the previously used plastic bags in order to avoid the littering drains. Moreover, the community members actively engaged in awareness raising activities in the market place and amidst neighbours. The first multiplier effects were initiated by integrating new community groups into the workshops and by sharing knowledge and experiences.

The 3rd Community Workshop was set up in order to evaluate the initial adaptation efforts and to maximize the first multiplier effects, e.g. the sharing of knowledge and experiences with other community groups and the initiation of further activities. The tables below summarize a range of opinions and experiences the community of District 4, Ward 8 wanted to share. What has changed in your behaviour? Garbage is collected and sorted at the household level in order to improve the environmental condition of the neighbourhood and in order to avoid the littering or even blocking of the drainage system. Electronic devices and lights are switched off, when they are not in use, in order to reduce overall energy consumption. Environmentally friendly and re-usable carrier bags are utilized for shopping in order to reduce waste production. The consumption of plastic items has been reduced. Do you want to share any experiences? Do you have any remarks? The green, conspicuous carrier bags, distributed by enda Vietnam are recognized by shopkeepers and sellers at markets. This gives the community members the opportunity to inform on the CBA model project, on climate change and the necessity to keep the environment clean and to reduce plastic consumption. It was found more efficient to use one big bag instead of many plastic bags. It was suggested that the distribution of the shopping bags shall be expanded to other blocks and wards. The growing of plants in public open spaces, along the roadside and on balconies increases the attractiveness of the neighbourhood and provides a welcoming atmosphere.

At this point, we would like to summarize a variety of findings from the CBA model project, in order to encourage vulnerable communities, civil society organizations and local governmental institutions to start an adaptation initiative by themselves. At the starting point of an adaptation project, it may seem that the objective of adaptation to climate change and vulnerability reduction is out of reach. The experiences with the community of District 4, Ward 8, have proved, that local communities may have limited resources for structural adaptation, but they possess indigenous knowledge as a basic component of CBA; they have the ability to assess the local impacts of climate change, to organize workshops, to communicate with civil society organizations and the local government. Of course, we cannot conceal that the CBA approach has to rise to various challenges: Local level activities are limited in scale and scope; major impacts of climate change, such as floo-
ding due to sea-level rise, or overheating due to rising temperatures may not be addressed effectively. If a community is heavily endangered by inundation, only the migration to a safer site will bring about the needed change to their situation. CBA activities might be pertubed and even nullified by larger scale developments; in order to be sustainable, small-scale, community-based initiatives therefore need to be integrated into the overall planning procedures. Nevertheless, take courage, be proactive and make the first move to initiate your own CBA project in your neighbourhood! And of course, we want to learn from your experience. We wish to hear from you. For any feedback, comments or project reports please contact the Megacity Research Project TP. Ho Chi Minh or enda Vietnam. We wish you a lot of success!
