Entendre les préoccupations des populations des petits États insulaires en développement dans l’adaptation au changement climatique.

Documentation of the impacts of climate change in addition to strategies of mitigation and adaptation of societies in Small Islands Developing States (SIDS) is increasing, although often with an emphasis on SIDS located in the Caribbean and Pacific whereas all SIDS deserve full and equal attention....
