This outcome aims to reduce disaster risk and impacts of climate change by mainstreaming Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation into development interventions and establishing coordination and collaboration mechanism among the state and non-state actors. It also aims to build resilient communities linking upstream and downstream communities and increase adoption of climate resilient development practices reducing threats to ecological resilience as well as mountain bio-diversity and natural resources.

For this, conducting action research and learning, facilitating adaptation actions/technology (models), advocating and mainstreaming on disaster and climate changes issues of mountain & hill region, capacity development, technology transfer, strengthen groups and local CBOs will be done.
