Towards a Resilient ASEAN Volume 2 – Advancing Disaster Resilience and Climate Change Adaptation: roadmap and options for implementation
Author:Venkatachalam Anbumozhi, Jeremy gross, and Stefan Wesiak

Abstract
				Climate change tends to increase the frequency and intensity of weather-related natural disasters, which put many people at risk. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is more vulnerable to these risks than any other region due to its dependence on natural resources. Economic and social impacts further increase the vulnerability of food value chains and isolated communities and tend to retard development and increase disparity nationally and regionwide. This book addresses the distributional effects of disasters and climate change on food systems, people, and places, introducing concepts of resilience and methods for analysis and illustrating the roadmaps for adaptation at the local, sectoral, national, and regional levels.
