Följande studie syftar till att analysera mindre kommuners hinder och möjligheter i det kommunala klimatanpassningsarbetet. Studien belyser även hur kritiska faktorer tar sig form som betydande i klimatanpassningsarbetet enligt aktörerna. Studiens empiriska material är baserat på sex semistrukturerade intervjuer, genomförda med aktörer med varierande yrkesroll i fyra svenska kommuner. Analysen av det empiriska materialet identifierade ett antal teman som lyfte faktorer som ansågs betydelsefulla att belysa i mindre kommuners kommunala klimatanpassningsarbete. Identifierade teman var följande: ekonomiska barriärer, politik, kompetens, interna och externa samverkansprocesser och stöd och vägledning i klimatanpassningsarbetet. Studien visade att mindre kommuner har ett antal möjligheter som ansågs betydande i det kommunala klimatanpassningsarbetet och dessa bestod av korta beslutsvägar och god intern och extern kommunikation. Studien pekade på att mindre kommuners klimatanpassningsarbete karaktäriseras av fler hinder än möjligheter, något som anses hämma implementeringen i det kommunala klimatanpassningsarbetet. Hindren utgörs av bristande förståelse från allmänheten, bristande intresse på politisk nivå, svårigheter i att rekrytera relevant kompetens samt att definiera och strukturera det egna klimatanpassningsarbetet. Studien visar även att det är komplext för mindre kommuner att endast tala om översvämningar i klimatanpassningsarbetet, därav pekar studien på att mindre kommuner behöver få hjälp att skala ner riktlinjer till den egna kommunens kapacitet. Mindre kommuners långsiktiga och strategiska mål i kommunalt klimatanpassningsarbete anses vara viktiga variabler att belysa i framtida studier. / The following study aims to analyze the barriers and opportunities for less-populous municipalities in the climate adaptation work. The study also highlights critical issues taking shape as important to climate adaptation work according to the actors and how they differ in their work towards higher populated municipalities. The study's empirical material is based on six semi-structured interviews, conducted with actors with varying professional roles in four Swedish municipalities. The analysis of the empirical material identified several themes that were considered important in the municipalities' climate adaptation work. Identified themes were as follows: economic barriers, politics, competence, internal and external collaboration processes and support and guidance in climate adaptation work.The study showed that less-populous municipalities have a number of opportunities that were considered significant in the municipal climate adaptation work and these consisted of short decision paths and good internal and external communication. The study pointed out that less-populous municipalities' climate adaptation work is characterized by more obstacles than opportunities, something that is considered to impede the implementation. The obstacles consist of a lack of understanding from the public, a lack of interest at the political level, difficulties in retaining and recruiting relevant competence, and defining and structuring the local climate adaptation work. The study also shows that it is complex for less-populous municipalities to only talk about flooding in the climate adaptation work, hence the study points out that less-populous municipalities need to acquire tools to be able to scale down guidelines to their own municipality's capacity. The municipalities' long-term and strategic goals in the climate adaptation work are considered to be important variables to highlight in future studies.

A methodology used was based in research biography and in view of collected in sensus demography of 2000. Publicaded by the Institute Brazian of Geograph and Estatistic. IBGE. With this analyse the increasement populous, in the tauch to the size of the family in this universe of mothers, and their implicating for the education and per capita income, where show that Amazon state go along with, tendency Brazilian with the fall of the ritme in Amazon don`t occur of form uniform, having in sight a parcel of their population above all the group of motheres pertains the class few schoolings and of revenue under resident, mainly in part of the interior and in the areas rurals of the states, still prevailed families numerous in 2000. In interior, 14% of these five sons. In the context, was contexted the stronger influence of the education in the maner of the women how much of have sons, but in Amazon there was a percentage very tail of mothers with more of five sons between a grupo of women of schoolings extremily under. Showalso, of accord with the datum verifield in the pass a way of the research, that how much big the level of schoolings few are the opportunities of the people have better revenue and obtain a better level of live, showing that education is a factor for the promotion of the development economic. Conclued, therefore e, that education and rent are negativament correlacioned with the level of increasement populous evidencing the tact of that the reduction of the size of the families reflect positively in situation partner-economic of the population. / Este trabalho faz uma análise das implicações do crescimento populacional, na correlação entre educação, número de filhos e renda per capita no Estado do Amazonas, delimitando a pesquisa num universo de mães menores de 30 anos de filhos tidos nascidos vivos em 2000. A metodologia utilizada foi baseada em pesquisa bibliográfica e nos dados coletados no Censo Demográfico de 2000, publicados pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística - IBGE. Com isso, analisa o crescimento populacional, no tocante ao tamanho da família, nesse universo de mães, e suas implicações para a educação e renda per capita, onde mostra que o Estado do Amazonas acompanhou a tendência brasileira com a queda das taxas de fecundidade em razão do processo de transição demográfica, iniciada na década de 1940. Mostrou também que a queda do ritmo de crescimento populacional no Amazonas não ocorreu de forma homogênea, tendo em vista uma parcela de sua população, sobretudo o grupo de mães pertencentes às classes menos escolarizadas e de rendimentos baixos, residente, principalmente, em parte do interior e nas áreas rurais do Estado, ainda prevalecia famílias numerosas em 2000. No interior, 14% dessas mães tinham 1 filho e 34% mais de 5 filhos. Nesse contexto, foi constatada a forte influência da educação no comportamento das mulheres quanto à decisão de ter filhos, pois no Amazonas existia um percentual muito elevado de mães com mais de 5 filhos entre o grupo de mulheres de escolaridade extremamente baixa. Mostra também, de acordo com os dados verificados no decorrer da pesquisa, que quanto maior o nível de escolaridade, maiores são as chances das pessoas obterem melhores rendimentos e, por conseguinte, um melhor padrão de vida, mostrando que a educação é um fator condicionante para a promoção do desenvolvimento econômico. Conclui, portanto, que educação e renda estão negativamente correlacionadas com o nível de crescimento populacional evidenciando o fato de que a redução do tamanho das famílias reflete, positivamente, na situação sócio-econômica da população.
