    Sammanfattning : Mountain agricultural systems in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) are in a unique position to contribute to promoting nature-based solutions in adaptation and resilience to climate change since they are least impacted by the influence of commercial high-production agriculture. This study aims to explore currently available literature for evidence of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) based agriculture in the HKH region and analyse their contribution to region and location specific climate change adaptation.

    Nyckelord :vattendistribution; vattenhantering; vattenbrist; klimatförändringar; ursprungsbefolkning;

    Sammanfattning : Sverige har hittills varit relativt förskonade från vattenproblematik, men det extrema väder orsakat av klimatförändringarna gör att även vi kan utsättas för bristande tillgångar på färskvatten och de sociala konsekvenser som medföljer. Ett sätt att förbereda oss i kampen mot det förändrade klimatet och dess konsekvenser kan vara att studera extrema kontexter, områden som redan idag visar på resultatet av klimatförändringarna.
