An objective of the series is to get the findings out quickly, even if the presentations are less than fully polished. The papers carry the names of the authors and should be cited accordingly. The findings, interpretations, and conclusions expressed in this paper are entirely those of the authors. They do not necessarily represent the views of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development/World Bank and its affiliated organizations, or those of the Executive Directors of the World Bank or the governments they represent.Policy Research Working Paper 11187The success of climate adaptation and mitigation often depends on support from local communities. Yet, it remains unclear what strategies are most effective to inform and activate support for climate action. This paper presents the results of a randomized controlled trial in Indonesia that evaluated how local climate information and different facilitation strategies for group decision-making on local development spending impacted preferences for climate adaptation and mitigation. In the first treatment, partici-pants watched an educational video on climate change and a presentation on local climate vulnerabilities; in the second, they discussed and voted on spending priorities for local development funds after receiving the same educational materials; and in the third, they deliberated over group spending priorities after receiving the educational materials, discussing, and voting. The findings show that participants who engaged in deliberation about the allocation of local funding demonstrated significantly greater support for cli-mate adaptation and mitigation actions as compared to all other groups. Further, they showed a statistically significant increase in their preferences for climate action after the intervention. The findings demonstrate the importance of sharing accessible information and using deliberative approaches to foster local support for climate action.This paper is a product of the Social Development Global Department.
