 * Impact2C || A multi-disciplinary international expert team will ssess the effects of a 2 degree rise in temperature on water and energy supply, infrastructure, coasts, tourism, forestry, agriculture, ecosystems services, and health. The project also studies climate change impacts in some of the world’s most vulnerable regions outside Europe: Bangladesh, Africa, and the Maldives. || Potsdam Institute, Germany || Simon Langan
 * Afromaison || AFROMAISON will make use of what is available regarding INRM and will contribute to a better integration and fitting of the following key components of INRM at a meso-scale level: *
 * Indigenous knowledge and practices (to take local traditions, cultural norms, specific acceptance structures into account)
 * Institutional strengthening and improved interaction between sectors, scales and communities. || Antea Group, Belgium || Simon Langan
 * Rethinking water storage for climate change adaptation || Multi-disciplinary research conducted at different scales in the Nile and Volta Basins, to develope methods for evaluating the effectiveness and suitability of a range of water storage types under existing conditions and possible future climate. || IWMI || Matthew McCartney (m.mccartney@cgiar.org) || Nile Basin || GIZ || [] || Project is coming to an end (March 2012) but several publications from the project may come out after his date. ||
