This study aim to clarify the impacts of climate changes in different ruralcommunity levels, effects of development projects in reducing community'svulnerability to climate changes, and also the changes in conditions of human, natural,social, financial and physical capitals before and after the interference of theseprojects. The positive and negative effects of these changes were tested according tolocal community's perspective and assessed to examine its sustainability.The selected project was implemented by Plan Sudan Organization in northernpart of White Nile state; (in Elshigeig village) in central part of Sudan. This area wasbadly affected by severe drought intervals in the last three decades, rural communitiesthere lost all their means of living due to drought as they were depend on rainfall inmost of their economical activities, The case study results proved that the ruralcommunities in the area were became stable and less distress of rainfall fluctuations,also it confirmed that local communities became aware about the natural resourcesmanagement in the area. The productivity of natural range lands was improved from(29%) before the project intervention to (72%) after its implementation, thisimprovement was due to the pastures rehabilitation programmes applied through theproject. The results approved that the percent of students joined schools in the projectarea was increased to (96%) compared to (53%) in other areas due to generaleducation programme which was part of Plan Sudan project. Rehabilitation of healthfacilities in the area increased the public satisfaction up to (69%) after the projectintervention compared to (28%) before the project intervention. Also the resultsproved that the communities became well adapted to changes caused by drought andbecome more resilient to any climatic shocks; this new adaptation capability wasfound to be a direct result of the development project implemented in the area.Conclusions and recommendations emerging from this study explain theimportance of bottom-up approach for decision makers to know the real communities`requirements. Provision of these requirements will make the communities moreresilient to adverse conditions that caused by climate changes.
