Abstract

he present work has as general objective, To analyze the actions implemented by the CLGRC in reducing Community Vulnerability to Climate Events in the district of Homoíne. For the same to be achieved, a sample of 151 people of whom 16 were members of the CLGRC and 135 were members of the communities where the CLGRCs are inserted, the sampling technique used to select the elements of the sample was intentional non-probabilistic sampling, due to the this technique with research. For data collection, a bibliographic review was used as a way to obtain general information related to the theme and to obtain the field data, the participant observation technique and semi-interview were combined structured, and the information was analyzed using the analysis technique of content and interpreted as a graph by Microsoft office Excel. Based on the techniques employed, it was observed that the vulnerability of communities to events climatic conditions is aggravated by the overlap of physical, socioeconomic and environmental issues. Although the CLGRC are implementing actions to reduce the vulnerability of communities, 62% of respondents at the level of these communities are unaware of the existence of these actions, as they will never participate in any meeting promoted by the CLGRC much less about the process of elaborating or implementing them, which in their opinion is reflected in the increased vulnerability of the communities, in face of this situation, the impact of the actions implemented by the CLGRC is negative, because even with the existence of the aforementioned structure has seen a progressive increase in the vulnerability at the community level. Thus, it can be said that the actions implemented by the CLGRC do not contribute significantly to the reduction of communities' vulnerability to climatic events.
