SUMMARY:

The impacts of global climate change affect all forms of life on the planet. In Brazil, the semi-arid region is highly affected by long droughts, and with the speed in the process of climate change, the situation of water scarcity can gradually increase, requiring actions based on the insertion of adaptive measures. Most municipalities do not have management geared towards adapting to climate change, even in those most susceptible to climate risks and threats. Based on this problem, the managements of the municipalities inserted in the Piancó-Piranhas-Açu river basin were analyzed, in view of the capacity to respond to the risks of climate change, and the occurrence of extreme events. Methodologically, the research carried out a mixed approach (quanti-qualitative), where an index was developed to measure the adaptive management capacity of the municipalities of the Seridó Planning Unit (UPH Seridó). The results showed that the Seridó UPH is more prone to threats to the risks of climatological events; the municipalities showed greater social vulnerability than environmental vulnerability, and do not have the capacity to manage the risks of climate change, which infers a low level of adaptive management. Based on the data analyzed, it was reaffirmed that socio-environmental and climate issues are not being incorporated by the municipalities of the UPH Seridó RN, whose municipal profiles allow us to infer that this is a reality for the entire basin. The research leaves room for continuity in further studies, so that the field of analysis can be better explored.
