Reflecting the breadth of responses that adaptation to climate change can take at a local level, CBA projects take a variety of forms.22, 23, 24, 25 On the one hand, they may initiate discussion on the risks posed by climate change, raise awareness on the need to adapt to future stressors, build general capacity to identify and manage change, and seek to inform decisions undertaken at the individual, household, and community level. On the other hand, CBA projects may be deliberately supported by governments or donors to identify, prioritize, implement, and evaluate adaptations. Local level engagement and emphasis on local empowerment underpin CBA projects and, increasingly, effort is being directed to scaling‐up community work to inform broader level adaptation programing.23, 26 While most CBA projects have been undertaken in low‐to‐middle income nations, there is also emerging interest in employing CBA in high‐income nations, specifically with indigenous populations and resource‐dependent communities.27
