Introduction

My research explores the processes involved in facilitating a scenario-building approach to planning for climate change adaptation in Ghana. I draw on the literature from resilience theory and participatory action research to examine the exchange of information and facilitation techniques that affect a rural community's ability to envision the future under different climate.
