This study report 'Climate Change Vulnerability Mapping for Nepal' is a suplimentary effort to the National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) process in Nepal. The NAPA was mandated to assess the climatic vulnerability through out the country and also assess the impacts. This study had adopted the globally recognized process of vulnerability that the vulnerability is the function of exposure and sensitivity. The NAPA process of vulnerability assessment was not limited to the GIS based vulnerability only that it was spread from desk review to extensive public consultation and field verification. The GIS based vulnerability was taken as a tool to verify the information collected through those processes and also to add value to the available data presentation process.
