5 Bridging the Knowledge Gap: Climate Change in HKH Contribution to scientific understanding Latest science on climate and water in the HKH HKH-wide perspective covering Brahmaputra, Ganges, Indus, and Salween & Mekong Past trends from 1951 Future projections up to 2050 Research partners (Regional and beyond)
6 Improved understanding of Poverty and Vulnerability in HKH Multi-dimensional Livelihood Vulnerability Indices (MLVI) 4 sub-basins Mountain specific Multidimensional Poverty Indices (MMPI) Nepal, Myanmar (Bhutan, Meghalaya-India) Targeting: geographical, social, deprivations (who, why) Programme/ intervention designs for transformative change ICIMOD interventions: incremental change 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% MPI Myanmar (Chin and Shan) Shan Chin Total Hospital Bus stop Market Electricity for light Health Dwelling Improved Drinking Water Improved Sanitation Health care Child School Attendance
