英文摘要 | The transformation of monsoon rainfall patterns in India, largely attributed to climate change, is leading to more frequent and severe floods. These escalating challenges underscore the imperative of prioritising adaptive measures, given the intrinsic link between humans and climate change. This research conducted in Majuli Island, a highly vulnerable region in India's northeast, aims to understand current adaptive strategies and assess potential risks from impending physical exposures. Empirical evidence was collected using purposive sampling in two flood-prone villages. The objective was to revisit the Mishing community's experiences with annual flooding and climate challenges. Thematic analysis interpreted the qualitative findings. Implications for community-based adaptation and sustainable practices are discussed for future flood and climate challenges. The study emphasises strengthening ecosystem-based adaptation through multi-sectoral networking in Majuli Island, Northeast India. |
