The Decision Tree Framework is a decision support tool that aims to help project managers and development practitioners to pragmatically assess potential climate risks. This document, developed
by the Water Global Practice with the support of our Water Partnership Program (WPP), helps practitioners navigate the maze of existing climate assessment methods and models. The tool first
screens for climate vulnerabilities, and a ＂decision tree＂ subsequently helps project teams assess and then develop plans to manage climate and other risks. It uses a step-by-step
design--similar to a tree on which each ＂branch＂ builds off the previous one. [Foreword]--
