Climate change is real. The contents of the Primer are timely and are of importance to many local governments like Albay. --Joey Sarte Salceda, Governor, Albay Province, the Philippines

The Primer which focuses on reducing vulnerability to climate change impacts and related disasters is a useful and valuable reference for . . . city managers and local government leaders. --Emeritus Mayor Peter Woods OAM, Secretary General, United Cities and Local Governments Asia-Pacific (UCLG ASPAC)

We commend the World Bank, the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery, and the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction s efforts on the Primer of guidelines to strengthen the capacity of local governments and partners in building resilient communities. CITYNET is very proud to be part of this initiative and we hope to promote optimal usage of the Primer through activities on mainstreaming disaster risk reduction and climate change in overall urban planning and management. --Dato Lakhbir Singh Chahl, Secretary General, CITYNET, (Regional Network of Local Authorities for the Management of Human Settlements)
