Climate Change Impacts on Freshwater Ecosystems in the Himalayas (CCIFEH) Programme is a joint initiative of WWF-India and WWF Nepal, funded by WWF-The Netherlands. The Programme entails a panorama of actions working towards understanding future climate change impacts on Himalayan river ecosystems and vulnerable communities for the development of adaptation strategies; implementation of pilot adaptation strategies in selected sites; and raising the awareness of climate change impacts on Himalayan river basins, in addition to urging specific decision makers within the region to take appropriate action.
