Abstract
"Climate change is predicted to have significant impacts on the economy and environmental resources in developing countries, particularly in Sub-Saharan countries such as Tanzania. Food production, water, infrastructure, settlements and health will all be affected by climatic changes such as more frequent and intense droughts and flooding. Certain groups will be more vulnerable to these impacts than others. National adaptation plans and policies will need to prioritize the needs of these groups. (p. 1)
