ARA-TLS Knowledge Synthesis Symposium 2024 – Asia Pacific

Earlier this year, Transitions Research, in collaboration with the Adaptation Research Alliance, hosted a TLS Knowledge Symposium in Bangkok, Thailand. The event brought together members of the ARA Asia-Pacific community to share knowledge and insights from their experiences addressing critical issues in climate adaptation.

We have compiled these learnings into an event report, which offers a comprehensive understanding of the adaptation ecosystem through a rich tapestry of perspectives and experiences.

Heat Adaptation

Developing and least developed countries are highly vulnerable to extreme heat due to higher population densities, limited resources, and lower socio-economic capabilities. Leveraging local knowledge can play a major role in building community-level resilience.
