Climate change and the adaptation to its negative impact not only rank high on the political agenda, they also open up a field for social research where anthropologists and social geographers can add valuable contributions. The paper outlines conceptually the challenges in conducting research on the adaptation to climate change by presenting the uncertainties with regard to climate modeling in the Ethiopian Highlands. The authors ask whether it is possible to empirically investigate the direct dependency between climate change and local adaptation strategies by referring to their own and other research projects in the study region.
