The IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report:
What’s in it for Small Island Developing States
This report presents key findings from the IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) for Small Island Developing States (SIDS). It extracts SIDS-specific data, trends and analysis directly from AR5, summarising it in a short volume to make it accessible to all audiences, and highlights key opportunities to achieve adaptation, mitigation and development.
The IPCC has produced the most comprehensive assessment of climate change ever. The Fifth Assessment Report (AR5), is the work of 830 expert authors from 85 countries and its first three volumes already stretch to 5,000+ pages. Now, the Climate and Development Knowledge Network and the Overseas Development Institute have released a succinct guide to the assessment for decision-makers in Small Island Developing States.
