CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION-BASED STRATEGIES ON WATER AND ITS SECURITY: A STUDY ON DHAKA AND ANKARA

Abstract

Adaptation strategies on climate change are one of the policy actions that can help to inform and assist individuals as well as addressing anticipated threats of climate change. These strategies can be non-regret strategies (supply and demand side), climate justified strategies to identify and resolve threats and ensuring potential alternatives as well as coping with uncertainties, increasing water supply, managing demand and use. Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh and Ankara the capital of Turkey are facing water related challenges due to climate change impact. Therefore, various considerable adaptation-based strategies on water sector have been taken from the national to city level to ensure water security but still the adaptation practice is quite insufficient. Based on secondary based research, this study has reviewed the existing policies and strategies on water and its security, and highlighted needed adaptation-based strategies to perform. Finally, this study proposed that an effective multi-stakeholder collaboration are necessary to maintain proper co-ordination with a long term integrated adaptation program, improve water use efficiency through education and awareness campaigns, strengthen water conservation programs, impose legal restrictions, introduce incentives for consumer etc.to make Ankara and Dhaka a water secured city.
