International organizations and climate change adaptation: A new dataset for the social scientific study of adaptation, 1990-2017.

This article introduces a new dataset on the climate change adaptation activities of international organizations (IOs). While climate change adaptation has been studied at the local level and in the context of major climate organizations, such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Ch...
