Climate change impacts vary widely across regions and socio-economic groups, presenting diverse challenges. Coastal areas face sea-level rise and increased storm surges, while arid regions experience intensified droughts affecting water and agriculture. Urban areas deal with heatwaves, straining health systems, and rural areas struggle with changing agricultural conditions. Low-income communities, often in high-risk zones, lack resources for recovery and adaptation. Indigenous populations face disrupted traditional livelihoods, and women, children, the elderly, and disabled individuals bear disproportionate burdens.

To ensure equitable adaptation and resilience efforts, strategies include:

1. Inclusive Policymaking: Engage marginalized communities in decision-making.
2. Community-Based Adaptation: Develop localized plans using local knowledge.
3. Robust Social Safety Nets: Strengthen social protections during climate events.
4. Resilient Infrastructure: Invest in durable infrastructure.
5. Climate Education: Promote awareness and education on climate risks.
6. Equitable Resource Access: Ensure fair distribution of resources.
7. Climate Justice Frameworks: Address unequal impacts through policy.
8. International Cooperation: Share resources, knowledge, and technology globally.

These strategies aim to build resilience and ensure adaptation efforts are inclusive, fair, and effective.
