This activity report provides a detailed description and evaluation of a country project aimed to increase community capacity to measure and adapt to weather and climate related disasters in Nepal. Dissemination of information on climate change and potential extreme events to the communities helps in preparedness measures to save lives and valuables, minimizing disaster losses. It is therefore essential to produce information in user-friendly formats, understandable to the local communities of vulnerable areas.
