The development of preparedness plans and the setup of a backup mechanism to ensure medicine supplies, storage, and distribution in case of crisis (Output 2.2) is likely to ensure the responsiveness of the health system, helping to mitigate the various risks. Adaptation and mitigation practices will ensure the health system is responsive to the broad array of climate risks (flooding, excess heat/drought that create disruptions in electricity, and/or supply chains and/or the provision of services).
